Bespoke Cutting Systems

BD Nuclear is often asked to design bespoke cutting systems. This is due to the myriad of contaminated structures found in the nuclear decommissioning field.

To date we have produced a number of bespoke wire saws to allow the size reduction of various pond skips, a charge machine, racks and a number of vessels and tanks.

BD Nuclear has strong links to our supplier’s engineers and this allows us to develop and market new and bespoke equipment very efficiently.
