Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 71 words
The method of making a superconductive arrangement, comprising: providing a thin tape of superconductive material as a self supporting foil, and having thickness in the range of 0.03mm to 0.5mm; bending the tape longitudinally into tubular configuration to obtain axially adjoining edges; welding the edges to obtain an axial seam; and extruding a plastic material as carrier onto the tubular configuration so that the interiOr of the tubular configuration remains empty.
