Krell Technologies

KrellTech’s NOVA™ system is a high-performance platform for polishing and shaping photonic components including optical connectors, bare fiber, waveguides, and PICs. NOVA combines programmable control with in-line video inspection for immediate feedback and process reliability across telecom, datacom, biomedical, aerospace, and industrial applications. 

Engineered for both R&D and production, NOVA delivers micron-level positioning, variable descent rates, and multi-axis angle control to support complex geometries and advanced polishing routines. This includes standard APC finishes, extreme-angle polishing, conical tip shaping, and multi-facet endface profiles for PICs and specialty components. 

Its modular design features interchangeable workholders, enabling quick transitions between component types without needing a separate machine—maximizing utility and return on investment. The intuitive touchscreen interface supports custom program creation and storage. 

With over 30 years of industry expertise, KrellTech ensures seamless integration with customer workflows. NOVA meets rigorous Telcordia and Mil-spec standards, making it ideal for both high-volume and mission-critical environments.
