Bronze
Bronze-based NbSn wires are industries first choice wherever very high performance is needed
RRP
The unique Bruker Rod-Restack Process (RRP®) conductor portfolio is the perfect choice for fusion and high-energy physics projects that require highest magnetic fields.

Features

Today, Bruker Nb3Sn wires are applied at a large scale in high field nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry (NMR), high energy physics and fusion research. Customers worldwide use Bruker LTS materials to push technological limits and rely on our experts to tailor conductors precisely to specific requirements. And we look forward to discussing yours!

NbSn superconductor wires manufactured by Bruker  deliver benchmark performance for the most demanding applications in magnetic high-field technology. Their favorable operating characteristics in magnetic fields of up to > 20 Tesla make them the gold standard of low-temperature superconductors.

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy is the most prominent application of Bruker NbSn wires. Magnets delivering field strengths in excess of 20 Tesla are employed in NMR systems. Our NbSn conductors are also utilized in all major particle accelerator and fusion research projects, which will in future require magnets exceeding 12 Tesla.

We meet the specific challenges presented by these areas of deployment:

Bronze-based NbSn wires by Bruker are the industry’s first choice wherever very high performance superconductors must also feature robust mechanical load-bearing capacities.

 Our bronze-based wire design has been proving its versatility in magnets between 10 to 23 Tesla for many years and is applicable, as well, for exceptionally demanding LTS cable configurations.

The very best high field performance attainable in Nb Sn is provided by BEST's RRP wire. This performance has enabled multiple world-record setting magnets. BEST has scaled up this state-of-the-art conductor to commercial production. For applications demanding the very best high field performance, RRP may provide the most cost effective conductor.
