Imashini ya superconducting ni ijambo rusange kuri coil ikozwe mu nsinga zidasanzwe hamwe na kontineri (cryostat) ikomeza ubushyuhe bwayo bukabije. Ikoreshwa cyane mubice bitandukanye nkumuyagankuba, ubwikorezi, kwivuza, kurengera igihugu hamwe nubushakashatsi bwa siyansi.

Imashini zidasanzwe zitagira ubushyuhe bwa Joule mugihe gikora neza. Ibi ni ukuri cyane cyane kuri magnesi zikeneye kubona imbaraga za rukuruzi za DC mumwanya munini, zishobora kuzigama ingufu nyinshi, kandi imbaraga zisabwa zisabwa ni nto cyane, kandi zisanzwe Ibikoresho binini byo gutanga amazi no kweza nka magneti.

Mu myaka yashize, uruganda rwanjye rukora amashanyarazi rukomeye rwateye imbere cyane, hamwe niterambere rikomeje mu ikoranabuhanga n’ibikoresho byo mu rwego rwo hejuru. Muri icyo gihe, yashizeho ikigo cy’ubushakashatsi cyiganjemo Ishuri Rikuru ry’Ubumenyi ry’Ubushinwa kugira ngo gikore ubushakashatsi ku mishinga minini mu bijyanye na rukuruzi zidasanzwe; imiyoboro ya superconducting ifite ibikoresho bya magnetiki birenze urugero Igipimo cya sisitemu ya MRI nacyo cyiyongereye ku buryo bugaragara, ibyo bikaba byateje imbere iterambere ry’ikoranabuhanga mu buvuzi mu gihugu cyanjye.

Kugeza ubu, magnesi zidasanzwe zikoreshwa mu bice byinshi nk'ubushakashatsi bwa siyansi, sisitemu z'amashanyarazi, inzira ya gari ya moshi, ibinyabuzima, igisirikare, gutandukanya imyanda mu nganda, no gutandukanya magneti. Imashini zidasanzwe zikora neza ku isoko ry'ubuvuzi. Ubushakashatsi ku bicuruzwa birenze urugero bya magneti mu gihugu cyanjye byibanda cyane cyane kubuvuzi. Mu gihe runaka kiri imbere, imashini zikoresha imiti zidasanzwe zizakomeza kuba ahantu hashyushye mu bushakashatsi ku isoko, ndetse n’ahantu hashyushye ku isoko, kandi ibyifuzo bizakomeza kwiyongera.
