Activity and Skills

Resistive and permanent magnet design and manufacture, with water or air cooled windings, and high precission laminated or solid magnetic yokes. Main applications so far include particle accelerators, magnetic separation and nanotechnology, among others.

Design and manufacture of superconducting magnets for applications such as particle accelerators, med-tech (protontherapy, MRIs etc.), motors/generators etc.
Cryogenic system design.

All necessary facilities are avaliable at our workshop, including: winding machines, vacuum-pressure impregnating devices, ovens, yoke manufacturing and assembly areas, testing laboratory and a 250 m2 clean working area.
