The WST’s superconducting strands delivered to Chinese DA

 On March 1, 2012, the first shipment of Nb3Sn strands for ITER TF conductor and NbTi strands for ITER PF conductor were delivered to Chinese DA, which is a milestone of mass production of superconducting strands in WST.

 So far, WST’s strands have passed the measurements of superconducting properties organized by ITER organization six times, being the unique superconducting strands supplier in the world. The Nb3Sn and NbTi strands delivered by WST are the products purchased by China DA and will be used for the manufacturing of real conductor for ITER project.
