Uranium Enrichment
Vonk developed and continues optimizing drive systems to feed centrifuges that enrich uranium. The systems were industrialized for series production and nowadays Vonk is the largest supplier for these drives in the world. Vonk drives stand for precision, low energy, and low maintenance for decades of operation.
Our solutions for Uranium Enrichment
MF Drive Systems Powering Centrifuges
In the nuclear industry, security of supply is essential. Vonk’s medium-frequency (MF) drive systems, which power centrifuges for uranium enrichment, have demonstrated their reliability for over five decades. Our innovative converters, combined with MF power distribution systems, are fully industrialized for series production, enabling us to serve this growing market effectively.
Main Power Distribution
In addition to MF drive systems, Vonk is also a leading supplier of main power distribution (MPD) solutions that power the converters of our MF drive systems. Our MPD systems include transformers and distribution switchgear, interconnected through cables or bus bars.
Applications
Vonk MF drive systems are utilized in production plants for enriched uranium, which is used as fuel for nuclear power plants, including modern small modular reactors (SMRs). Additionally, our systems support the production of stable isotopes, which are essential for medical applications.
