Keywords:fuel handling machine, sodium-cooled reactor

A next generation sodium cooled reactor introduce a flexible arm fuel handling machine to reduce reactor vessel diameter. In this study, prevention of jamming at the movable parts of the fuel handling machine and recovery from jamming is investigated.
