Fiberguide Industries has designed a line of standard Collimators and Focus Guides for use with a wide variety of optical systems. These ruggedized modules are manufactured to accept SMA, ST, FC, or machined ferrule style connectors. Assembled and preset at our factory to meet required specifications, all Collimators and Focus Guides can be adjusted to provide the flexibility necessary for certain set ups. Designed to collimate or focus light exiting an optical fiber to a desired beam diameter or spot size from the end of the module, these devices can be used with laser diodes, photodiodes, acoustic-optic modulators and other fiber optic devices. Collimators and Focus Guides can be used as matched pairs to couple light in and out of ...

Fiberguide Industries offers a variety of Vacuum and Pressure Feedthroughs to meet the most demanding applications. In addition to our successful pigtailed version, we included a unique design, where the optical fibers can be disconnected at the feedthrough on both the vacuum and atmospheric sides. This is a considerable advantage when damaged or contaminated fibers need replacing.

Most types of Vacuum Feedthroughs are available for a broad spectral range and dedicated fiber sizes. Designs of cells, flanges and multiple ports may differ to customer’s specifications.

To provide low optical coupling losses for single mode and polarization preserving single mode fibers, the pigtailed version is recommended. Because of ...

Multimode, step-index optical fibers offer the most efficient and flexible delivery of high power laser beams. The correct components should be selected for minimizing beam quality degradation and optimum robustness. Smaller fibers tend to produce less degradation to beam quality but the minimum usable fiber size is limited by the quality of the laser beam, focusing optic and the numerical aperture (N.A.) of the fiber. Selection of the appropriate fiber type is an important consideration because the characteristics of the output beam will enhance or degrade the utility of the fiber optic delivered beam for different applications. The other components of the beam delivery system also impact performance: High power handling requires high ...

Fiberguide has been supporting the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) in taking their concepts and ideas to market since 1977. Our staff of engineers, technical sales professionals and experienced production team unites in developing that product specific to your individual application. We design and engineer assemblies using not only our own pure silica core/silica clad, silica core/plastic clad fibers, but borosilicate glass fiber, ESKA™ plastic optical fiber, fluoride fiber, chalcogenide fiber, erbium-doped fiber and polarization maintaining fiber as well. Available with numerical apertures (N.A.’s) from 0.12 (full acceptance angle 14°) to 0.66 (full acceptance angle 82°), with the widest range of custom and standard endfittings/connectors and outer jackets to tailor a product to your technical and economic requisites.

The definition of a fiber optic assembly is “A length of fiber optic cable that has been terminated with a connector, pigtail or other component.” This could be a single fiber cable terminated with industry standard connectors on both ends and jacketed in flexible sheathing, to a multi-fiber design consisting of multiple input and or output, each with different cross-section areas and geometries, each requiring a custom machined endfitting and a heavy duty outer jacket to protect the assembly from being crushed.
