Curtiss-Wright Corporation
Overview
Curtiss-Wright Corporation, founded in 1929 and headquartered in the United States, operates within the manufacturing sector, specifically focusing on aerospace and defense applications. The company employs between 5,001 and 10,000 individuals and reported revenues of approximately $3.12 billion. A recent case study highlights Curtiss-Wright's involvement in a modernization project at a single-unit boiling water reactor (BWR) nuclear power plant in the Midwest. The project included the implementation of a new Control Rod Scram Timing (CRST) application, which enhances the tracking of control rod positions and scram timing movements. This system enables end-to-end data tracking, automating calculations that reduce testing times and minimize human error, thereby improving worker productivity. The scram time testing process is critical for ensuring the safe operation of nuclear reactors, as it allows operators to verify that safety systems are functioning correctly. This case study exemplifies Curtiss-Wright's expertise in providing advanced solutions for the nuclear power industry, contributing to enhanced safety and operational reliability.
