ABSTRACT:
A device for compacting a nuclear fuel assembly structure comprises a vertical compacting chamber having a cross-section matching that of the structure, structure guiding means and a jack for longitudinally compressing the structure against a movable member closing one end of the chamber. The compacting chamber is of sufficient length for receiving a non-fractionated structure and is provided, at the end opposite the compacting jack, with a unit movable transversely to the chamber between a position making possible the introduction of a structure and a position in which a reception box equipped with an ejection jack and forming the removable member is aligned with the compacting chamber.
