Check out how ITER Poloidal Field coil 4, weighing more than 350 tonnes, and measuring 24 m in diameter, is lifted in Europe's huge factory in order to get inserted into the cryostat. It's spectacular!
Fusion for Energy (F4E) is responsible for the production of five out the six Poloidal Field coils that will embrace the hot plasma from top to bottom. PF4 and PF3 will be the biggest superconductive magnets ever produced. They will also be the last Poloidal Field coils as part of the European contribution to ITER. Read the full story bit.ly/3ZoohCq
