ASG Superconductors will provide a tour of its premises on Tuesday, 8th October. The tour will start at 9.00 am at ASG and take about 90 minutes. Visitors will be divided in 5 groups with a size of about 20 people and guided over the factory.
On the tour, visitors will get an overview of the activities at ASG related to :
Fusion: The quality of ASG's nuclear fusion offering is the result of unequalled technical and productive expertise; thanks also to its continuous dialog with the main institutes and
research centers worldwide - including ENEA, UKAEA, CEA, IPP, ITER and Fusion4Energy, our magnets havebeen used in all the main fusion experiments undertaken so far in Europe during the last 70 years.
MRI Systems: Merging design innovation with leading-edge medical technology, ASG Superconductors provides advanced solutions in diagnostic imaging and cancer therapy,
delivering exceptional value to the global community of Healthcare Providers.
MROpen EVO: The MROpen EVO is the only superconductive MRI with a “totally open” magnet design based on MgB2 technology, that allows Multi-position imaging including advanced weight-bearing and functional studies, besides providing the highest comfort for patients.
S2C2 Synchrocyclotron for IBA: Particle therapy is used to treat many types of cancer, particularly in situations where normal treatments and radiotherapy are too risky for patients, including tumours of the central nervous system, eye, spine, prostate, liver, breasts and in childhood. The coils used in this type of application are made up of cryogen-free niobium titanium windings.
Superconducting Dipole D2 for HL-LHC: Showcase of D2 magnet for the project HL-LHC and technical discussion.
