Our skills
Engineering design. Programme management. Assembly, testing and commissioning. On-site/through-life support. Ansaldo Nucleare does it all.
With years of experience across a number of nuclear markets, Ansaldo Nucleare supplies and supports products ranging from small precision components to large machinery for high-integrity mechanical, electromechanical and software-controlled systems.
We’re capable of performing the vast majority of required activities in-house, thanks to our comprehensive internal resources. This means shorter lead times, and better design, quality and cost control too.
