Technology to Revolutionize the Superconductor Industry

In 2010 the US DOE announced a cessation of funding in fiscal year 2012 for the development of high temperature superconducting (HTS) wire. This is a strong indication that a sufficient maturity has been reached for commercialization. Particularly with the fragile nature of HTS wire, maturity of working with these materials has not proven sufficient to produce yields and reliability to support commercialization. The delicate nature of the media is even more extreme with the up and coming low temperature superconducting (LTS) reacted wires. Infinity Physics has addressed the material handling shortcomings of historical winding technology. The following table categorizes the compilation of improvements launched with the family of products for linear media handling.
