- Western Superconducting Technologies Co., Ltd. (688122.SS) manufactures high-performance superconducting materials, titanium alloys and superalloys for aerospace, medical, energy, transportation and defense applications; the company produces niobium-titanium (NbTi) ingot rods and superconducting wires, Nb3Sn superconducting wires, MgB2 high-temperature superconducting wires, superconducting magnets including those for single-crystal silicon production, titanium alloy billets, forgings, bars, rods, wires and profiles across various specifications, as well as deformed superalloys and superalloy master alloys. Headquartered in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, China, with production facilities in the Xi'an Economic-Technological Development Zone and Xi'an Jing Wei Industrial Park totaling 500,000 square meters, Western Superconducting Technologies operates primarily in China while exporting titanium products to Europe, Asia and America; founded on February 28, 2003, as a joint-stock company with registered capital of 55 million USD, it maintains shareholdings in domestic titanium sponge plants and serves as a leading supplier to China's aviation sector and the world's only fully integrated producer of NbTi ingot rods, wires and magnets. Recent developments include the achievement of mass production for practical MgB2 high-temperature superconducting wires using Powder-In-Tube technology, with single-wire lengths exceeding 20,000 meters and cumulative output over 250 kilometers to support China Southern Power Grid's superconducting magnetic energy storage devices, alongside the first international preparation of kilometer-level multi-core MgB2 wires via central magnesium diffusion method; in 2024, the company partnered with six application-oriented entities including multiple A-share listed companies to establish a nuclear fusion venture where it holds the largest stake as primary shareholder.
