High Temperature Superconductor (HTS) systems are developed by Scott under the "HTS-110" brand. HTS-110 was one of the first organisations in the world to develop HTS applications; now it markets its products globally.

Scott acquired a 51% shareholding in HTS-110 Limited in 2011, the other Shareholders being New Zealand Crown Research Institute, Industrial Research Limited (36%), and American Superconductor Corporation (13%)

HTS-110 provides compact, cryogen-free Nuclear Magnetic Resonance systems, high field strength electromagnets, and HTS motor coils for commercial and research applications.

Incorporating high temperature superconductors into a range of devices means smaller, easier to maintain and lower total lifetime cost devices than alternatives. This offers considerable potential.

HTS-110 systems have already been integrated into high-tech tools that analyse a wide range of materials, with applications from cutting edge nanotechnology to ultra-high capacity hard drives, and in the future in accelerated drug development, and biofuel plants.

HTS-110 has supplied the world's first high-speed HTS rotor for a 2MW generator which has been spun at 14,000 RPM, as well as coils for innovative ship propulsion and experimental coils for high speed trains, including Maglev.

We are also launching a range of specialist industrial refrigerators ("cryocoolers") in early 2012, initially targeted at the production of liquid nitrogen and oxygen for scientific and industrial use.
