What is a superconducting magnetic energy storage system?

Superconducting magnetic energy storage system can store electric energy in a superconducting coil without resistive losses, and release its stored energy if required [ 9, 10 ]. Most SMES devices have two essential systems: superconductor system and power conditioning system (PCS).

Where are superconductors used?

Our superconductors are used in healthcare e.g., in MRI scanners, NMR spectrometers and cancer treatment equipment across the globe. We are motivated by the increasing demand for cutting-edge technologies in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and proton beam therapy, both of which are continually advancing.

What are Bruker est superconductors used for?

The most widespread use of Bruker EST’s superconductors is in magnetic resonance imaging, commonly known as MRI, in clinical, hospital and research applications. Since its introduction in the 1970s, MRI has paved the way to medical breakthroughs in disease diagnosis, enabled by the high performance delivered by superconducting wire.
