BREMERTON, WASHINGTON - James Calverley, a senior mechanical engineer at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility (PSNS & IMF), demonstrates the auto-hydrolance condenser cleaning robot to Rear Adm. Jason Lloyd, then-chief engineer (CHENG) of Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) 05. The robot decreases condenser cleaning operations by weeks, removes human workers from exposure to dangerous high-pressure water jets, and improves the quality and consistency of condenser tube cleaning. Through the Discovery Team and the Engineering Intervention Board, this innovation from PSNS & IMF was successfully expanded to Norfolk Naval Shipyard (NNSY) and is now being adapted for submarine maintenance.
