Swedish Company Develops Advanced Cooling Equipment for CERN
Joh Sjö System has engineered specialized carbon dioxide accumulators for CERN's upgraded detectors, emphasizing the importance of precision and low leakage. The project's success enhances Joh Sjö's reputation and raises challenges in workforce sustainability amid increasing specialization in the industry.
Joh Sjö System has completed a project involving 15 pressurized carbon dioxide accumulators for CERN, valued at approximately 25 million SEK. The four-year initiative required about 6,000 engineering hours and stringent pressure and leak tests.
The cooling systems are designed to operate at -53 degrees Celsius within the Large Hadron Collider. The complexity of the task necessitated collaboration among various specialists, fostering a strong team culture. Furthermore, Joh Sjö has become an authorized supplier to CERN, which may enhance their positioning in high-precision sectors despite challenges in finding skilled labor amidst an evolving industry landscape focused on AI and automation.
