COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Superconductive Components, Inc. (OTC:SCCI) (BULLETIN BOARD: SCCI) , dba SCI Engineered Materials (SCI), a manufacturer of high quality sputtering targets for select markets in the physical vapor deposition industry, today announced it has ordered approximately $300,000 of new equipment to scale its production of sputtering targets for thin film battery customers and to also expand manufacturing capabilities of transparent conductive oxide targets for photovoltaic applications in the solar industry. The equipment is being acquired in response to current and anticipated customer demand within the thin film battery and solar markets. A portion of the equipment will be used to begin producing ceramic rotatable sputtering targets for the solar industry. Rotatable targets are being used in high volume applications and a growing number of solar manufacturers are either currently moving toward this technology or plan to do so. Dan Rooney, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "SCI is pursuing profitable opportunities to grow its customer base and leverage core competencies through an expanding product portfolio. Transparent conductive oxide targets are being requested by some of our solar customers and offer an attractive alternative to traditional materials, which are in short supply and subject to significantly increased demand from flat panel display manufacturers. Accelerating growth in solar and flat panel displays is creating new opportunities for SCI's products. This new equipment should allow us to increase our production beginning in the second half of 2007." About Superconductive Components, Inc.
