Magnex Scientific is a company involved in the design and build of superconducting magnet systems. In 2004 Magnex was bought by Varian, Inc. The Magnet Technology Centre is the new headquarters for magnet manufacturing for Varian, Inc. and is situated on the Oxford Industrial Park, north-west of the city of Oxford in England. The purpose built manufacturing plant was opened in 2000, and has since grown in size to . Part of this expansion is the new Varian European NMR demonstration facility, due for completion towards the end of 2005. The factory is able to manufacture Varian’s full range of NMR and MRS magnet systems including the class leading ultra high field 9.4 T 900 mm and 7.0 T 900 mm horizontal bore MRI magnets as well as high resolution 800 MHz NMR magnet systems == Magnex history == Since 1982 Magnex has grown to become the World Leader in NMR Magnet Technology.
