Innovation begins with exceptional engineering. At Standard Nuclear, our dedicated design teams transform complex nuclear concepts into practical, manufacturable and fully integrated engineering solutions. Supported by the extensive engineering resources of the Standard Engineering Technology (SET) Group, we provide complete mechanical, electrical, instrumentation and automation design services for transportable Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), nuclear process equipment and high-value modular systems.
With more than 100 seats of Siemens Solid Edge® 3D CAD software deployed across our engineering divisions, Standard Nuclear possesses one of the largest integrated mechanical design capabilities within the engineering sector. Our multidisciplinary engineering teams work collaboratively across mechanical, structural, piping, electrical and controls disciplines to develop complete digital models that optimise manufacturability, simplify assembly and reduce project delivery times.
Every nuclear project presents unique technical challenges. Our engineering philosophy is centred on developing bespoke solutions that precisely satisfy our customers' technical specifications, regulatory requirements and operational objectives. Whether supporting the manufacture of a single precision component or delivering a complete transportable Small Modular Reactor, our engineers work closely with clients throughout every stage of the project lifecycle.
Our design capability ranges from individual pressure vessels, piping assemblies and mechanical sub-components through to complete modular process skids, reactor auxiliary systems and fully integrated turnkey SMR packages. Each design is developed with consideration for manufacturability, transportation, maintainability, modular construction and long-term operational reliability.
Our engineering teams combine expertise across multiple disciplines to deliver complete, coordinated solutions from a single source. Mechanical engineering, structural design, pressure vessel design, piping layouts, electrical engineering, instrumentation, PLC and SCADA automation, thermal fluid systems and process control are developed simultaneously within a fully integrated digital environment.
This collaborative approach enables Standard Nuclear to deliver complete mechanical, electrical and control system solutions that are fully coordinated before manufacturing begins, reducing interfaces, eliminating clashes and ensuring smooth progression from engineering through fabrication, assembly and commissioning.
Three-dimensional modelling forms the foundation of every project undertaken by Standard Nuclear. Advanced CAD technologies enable our engineers to create detailed digital assemblies, perform interference detection, optimise equipment layouts and produce highly accurate manufacturing documentation. Detailed fabrication drawings, piping isometrics, assembly procedures, bills of materials and installation documentation are generated directly from the digital model, ensuring consistency throughout the entire project lifecycle.
Our digital engineering capability also supports design reviews, customer approvals, manufacturing planning and Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT), allowing clients to visualise complete assemblies before manufacture commences and reducing technical risk throughout project execution.
Standard Nuclear provides engineering support across the full spectrum of nuclear manufacturing projects. From conceptual studies and detailed design through to manufacturing, assembly, testing and commissioning support, we offer a complete turnkey service tailored to our customers' individual requirements.
Whether designing precision sub-assemblies, modular reactor auxiliaries or complete transportable Small Modular Reactor (SMR) systems incorporating advanced process equipment, electrical distribution, intelligent control systems and automation, Standard Nuclear delivers engineering solutions that combine innovation, manufacturability and world-class quality.
By combining advanced digital engineering tools with extensive manufacturing expertise and the multidisciplinary capabilities of the Standard Engineering Technology Group, Standard Nuclear provides customers with complete, fully integrated design solutions that accelerate project delivery while maintaining the highest standards of precision, quality and engineering excellence.
