The JT-60SA superconducting tokamak is being constructed under dual projects, the EU-JA international collaboration framework and Japanese national programme. To suppress magnetic field error to less than 0.01%
with respect to the toroidal magnetic field for good confinement of plasma, QST has developed a precise onsite assembly technology of tokamak components such as vacuum vessel (VV) and toroidal magnetic field coils (TFC) with size of over 10-m scale. Prior to an onsite assembly, the assembly process is carefully simulated in a three dimension CAD model, through which the location and number of the reference points for the assembly are evaluated to determine each component position. In the onsite assembly, the tokamak components are positioned by measuring with the laser tracker of a 0.5 mm spatial resolution and assembled by adjusting with shims and splice plates. The onsite assembly of the VV 340° sector has been succeeded in an allowable accuracy of +8/−4 mm with the 10 m diameter by welding sectors, each of which was circumferentially segmented and manufactured by taking into account the deformation due to the welding. The remaining 20° sector will be installed after the TF coils installation. The metrology developed for the onsite assembly of the JT-60SA is expected to be applicable to ITER whose size is the double of JT-60SA.
