    摘要: Disclosed is a spherical fuel element forming apparatus, comprising a fuel area forming system, a fuel-free area shaping system and a green sphere pressing system connected sequentially. The fuel area forming system is used for evenly mixing a core sphere matrix powder with nuclear fuel particles and then pressing the mixed core sphere matrix powder and nuclear fuel particles into core spheres. The fuel-free area shaping system is used for preparing a spherical fuel element from the core spheres covered by a fuel-free matrix powder. The green sphere pressing system is used for pressing the spherical fuel elements into green spheres. The spherical fuel element forming apparatus is distributed according to a technical process flow line operation, and is compact in structure and convenient to operate. All the devices are connected rationally. The apparatus operation has a good logical relationship and easily realizes automation. Sphere greens after being finally pressed are high in sphericity, fuel element cost is lowered, and the finished product rate is high.
