Rewriting the rules of applied HTS products. Since 2004.
OUR STORY
Since its inception in 2004, HTS-110 has led the transformation of high-temperature superconducting (HTS) research into market-ready applications. With steady innovation HTS-110 has excelled from its early days as a research-centre spinoff to its present status as an industry leader in HTS magnets.
Originally part of Industrial Research Limited (IRL), a New Zealand Crown Research Institute, and its predecessor, the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research (DSIR), HTS-110 has evolved through various ownership structures—from venture-funded spin-out, to a privately held entity under NZX-listed Scott Technology, ultimately thriving today as an independent company.
Throughout its history, HTS-110 has consistently expanded its range of magnet types and capabilities, engineering customized solutions for a range of applications, from energy storage to mine-clearing and homopolar motors, demonstrating an ability to address complex industrial challenges.
HTS-110 has been at the forefront of commercialising HTS magnets designed specifically for applications in x-ray and neutron beamline sample environments, magneto-optical material characterisation, and superconductor wire characterisation. Notably, the compact design and generous optical access of these systems make them ideally suited for applications where space and accessibility are critical. Similarly, a commitment to delivering fields of high uniformity and stability has resulted in a magnet platform with proven performance in high-resolution NMR spectroscopy, bringing this analytical tool directly into the chemistry lab.
Looking forward, the team at HTS-110 is committed to further rewriting the HTS rules. We are advancing the development of 20 T-class split pair magnets and high-field solenoids, while leveraging second-generation (2G) HTS wire to enhance the performance of proven first-generation HTS magnet platforms.
We believe HTS-110 remains the only company in the world specialising in the design, manufacture and delivery of HTS magnet systems.
