“…The UPs are designed as an integral part of the ITER VV providing access to the inside of the VV for installation and maintenance of the in-vessel components, plasma heating systems, diagnostics, blanket and first wall manifolds, and water flows for VV cooling and baking [9][10][11]. The UPs are double-wall welded structures made of austenitic stainless steel type 316L(N)-IG.…”

Due to the development of the ITER project, the requirements of the technical parameters of the ITER systems were more precisely and practically determined to be at higher levels. The essential increase of the ITER system characteristics happened recently. A number of prototypes were manufactured and tests were carried out. The results of the development and manufacture of 25 ITER systems, subject to the Russian Federation's obligations in the ITER project, are described.

“…Production of the raw material was started after verification of IO and agreed notified body (ANB) for the mill maker's quality plan, product qualification report, and shop qualification. The VV sector#6 manufacturing was started in February 2012 after the completion of the manufacturing readiness review by IO and ANB with all verification for the manufacturing design, manufacturing and inspection plan, qualification of welding, non-destructive examination (NDE), and shop [4,5].…”

In April 2020, manufacturing of the ITER vacuum vessel (VV) 1st sector has been completed by Korea domestic agency (KODA) since manufacturing started in February 2012. The ITER VV sector is the largest fusion VV structure in the world. Each step of the manufacturing was challenged as a first-of-a-kind (FOAK), and a French nuclear pressure vessel. The paper provides an overview of the major challenges which were overcome over the last 10 years.
