The dismantling of nuclear power plants and nuclear facilities requires precise planning, reliable technology and many years of experience. Wälischmiller Engineering has been developing manipulators and robotic systems for decontamination and dismantling projects since the 1990s. Our handling technology enables the controlled dismantling of components in contaminated areas and supports operators in safely dismantling plants step by step.
During dismantling, large-volume structures, pipelines, internals and reactor components must be dismantled precisely. This is where proven systems such as the A100, the A1000 and the TELBOT® for use. These manipulators and robot systems from Wälischmiller enable very precise work in contaminated and shielded areas without exposing the work personnel to unnecessary risks.
The systems are designed for high load capacity and long-term use. User-friendliness, precise control and robust construction ensure efficient processes in demanding project phases.












Wälischmiller Engineering has been supporting dismantling projects in Germany and internationally since the 1990s. Several German nuclear power plants have been successfully dismantled with the support of our manipulators, including the nuclear power plants in Greifswald, Rheinsberg and Obrigheim.
In addition to technical precision, reliability and efficiency are crucial in dismantling projects. Our systems meet all relevant safety requirements and support operators in complying with legal requirements. This results in structured processes that take into account the protection of employees as well as the controlled dismantling of contaminated plant areas.
Wälischmiller Engineering has been one of the market leaders for several decades for manipulators in nuclear decommissioning. Our customers particularly appreciate the Successful combination of technical efficiency, many years of project experience and long service life of our systems.
When dismantling entire power plants, HWM manipulators make a significant contribution to safe dismantling and decontamination.
The dismantling of the nuclear power plants in Rheinsberg, Obrigheim and Greifswald show that our manipulators work reliably and efficiently in complex large-scale projects.
We would be happy to advise you on your planned dismantling project and provide you with further references. Our experts will support you in selecting a suitable solution.
„As part of our collaboration with Wälischmiller Engineering, we are always delighted to exchange ideas with particularly professional, competent and committed teams. These constructive interactions lead to first-class solutions and results that fully meet expectations and are evidence of a genuine shared ambition. The smooth exchange, coupled with a high level of expertise, makes every collaboration both efficient and particularly pleasant.“
Manipulators such as the A100, the A1000 force manipulator or the Telbot® robotic arm are used for disassembly work, decontamination and handling contaminated components. They enable precise interventions in shielded areas.
HWM has decades of experience in the development of manipulators for the dismantling of nuclear power plants and nuclear facilities. Since the early 1990s, our teams have been working on technically challenging dismantling projects for nuclear facilities. We are proud to play our part in making the world safer and protecting people.
Wälischmiller works with many customers from the nuclear industry worldwide. These include the safe dismantling of nuclear power plants such as those in Obrigheim, Greifswald and Rheinsberg, which were dismantled with the help of our manipulators.
