    AUSTIN, Texas, June 22, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Superconductor Technologies Inc. (STI) (SCON), a world leader in the development and production of high temperature superconducting (HTS) materials and associated technologies, announced its Conductus(R) wire attained a new record for current handling performance of greater than 900 Amps at 77 kelvin in self field with 12 millimeter wide wire. This record breaking wire was produced with STI's new RCE production system.

    "Our new production machine achieved a significant milestone by producing Conductus wire with current handling capacity that exceeds the past performance of our pilot equipment," stated Jeff Quiram, STI's president and chief executive officer. "This substantial accomplishment further demonstrates the effectiveness and scalability of STI's proprietary RCE-CDR process. We plan to utilize the production machine to fulfill existing orders and we expect to continue to increase the lengths of high-performance Conductus wire being shipped in the coming weeks."

    STI continues to work closely with customers to complete Stage 2 qualification testing of Conductus wire for superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL), cable and magnet applications. Since reporting first quarter results on May 12, 2015, STI has shipped the next round of finished wire to SFCL customers. The customer fabricating the high power superconducting cable demonstration project informed STI that, due to other lab commitments, it now expects to complete its evaluation in August.

    STI Advances Development With SFCL Customers
    AUSTIN, Texas, July 20, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Superconductor Technologies Inc. (STI) (Nasdaq:SCON), a world leader in the development and production of high temperature superconducting (HTS) materials and associated technologies, achieved positive results with multiple superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) customers following the Conductus® wire evaluation and testing completed in June and July 2015. The SFCL results demonstrated dramatic improvement compared to tests completed earlier. In addition, STI successfully completed qualification testing with the Robinson Research Institute at Victoria University of Wellington. Conductus wire is now approved for use in making Roebel cable, a winding cable, which is used in high-field magnets, transformers, utility-scale generators and large motors.

    "As we rapidly approach final qualification, our customers are quickly providing detailed guidance that we believe will result in Conductus wire soon attaining all of the performance parameters required for SFCLs," stated Jeff Quiram, STI's president and chief executive officer. "We believe our SFCL customers have transitioned from a specification driven pass or fail testing methodology to a much more collaborative effort that involves business items such as forecasts, delivery lead times and price. Conductus wire is very close to passing all tests, and we are encouraged by our customers' confidence that our wire will be qualified in the next few months. In parallel, we have initiated business discussions to ensure product availability matches demand.

    "In conjunction with our partner, the Robinson Research Institute, we are engaged with multiple end use customers that plan to deploy Roebel cable in superconducting devices. With the successful qualification of Conductus for use in Robinson's Roebel cable, we believe we are well positioned to continue to aggressively pursue numerous opportunities in Asia."

    Test Description

    SFCL customers require Conductus wire to pass extensive engineering models and electrical testing that simulate characteristics of the wire performance in the SFCL device. The electrical tests replicate the thermal cycling of the superconducting wire in high-current operation. The latest results show that Conductus wire has made significant performance improvements in this area. Customers verified STI's 550 Amp current handling performance and recognized that the mechanical properties of Conductus provide unsurpassed robustness. The goal of SFCL manufacturers is to standardize on high performance wire that will ensure they have the best in class product to protect the grid in a majority of existing substation
