Features


  • High-Quality Preforms: Developed using highly pure fused silica materials, tailored to customer specifications for high-performance special and standard fibers.

  • Customizable Waveguide Design: Offers adjustable waveguide design for high data rates or high-power laser transmission, from prototype to series production.

  • Preform Design Options: Step-index and graded-index core profiles with dopant options including Germanium, Fluorine, Boron, or Rare-earth elements to achieve the required numerical aperture.

  • Advanced Process Technology: Utilizes MCVD (inner coating) for graded-index and step-index fibers, and PBVD (outer coating) for large core step-index fibers.

  • Strict Quality Monitoring: Ensures every preform meets strict quality standards and goal parameters for optimal performance during fiber drawing.

  • Innovative MCVD Production Technique: Guarantees specified fiber performance properties are met, available with optional handle for drawing tower fixation.

  • Multimode Preform Designs: Available in high-performance 50/125 and 62.5/125 designs, ensuring superior fiber performance.

  • Optimized Refractive Index Profile: Nearly parabolic refractive index profile with specified refractive index delta and numerical aperture.

  • Precise Dimensional Tolerances: Offers precise outer diameter (O.D.) tolerances both from rod to rod and within a rod, ensuring consistency and reliability.
