HTS Wire

Enabling greater efficiency in electrical devices and transmission
 

American Superconductor is the world’s leading developer and manufacturer of high temperature superconductor (HTS) wire. Capable of conducting over 150 times the electrical current of copper wire of the same dimensions, HTS wire provides two core benefits:

1.  Dramatically reduced size and weight of electrical equipment

2.  Significantly greater power throughput and efficiency

As a result, components (such as coils for industrial and naval motors or generators) that employ HTS wire deliver much higher power density while offering potentially lower manufacturing and maintenance costs.

Leading-edge technology, manufactured in the U.S.A.

AMSC manufactures its HTS wire in Devens, Massachusetts. We are able to customize our wire products to suit a broad range of HTS applications. Contact us about your custom HTS wire needs.
