Glass Fiber Optic Lightguides
Glass Fiber Optic Lightguides
Epsilon Controls & Automation offers PMMA fibre optic lightguides. Optical fibres are generally drawn from glass plastic and synthetically fused silica, often called silica or quartz fibre. Generally speaking, glass fibre is the best choice for illumination and sensing applications. Plastic fibre is a good choice for applications not having ambience above 70?C because of its lower cost and ease of assembly. For data communication, silica fibre is a great choice. The company specialises in producing lightguides from glass and plastic fibres for industrial and medical applications. The company has state-of-the-art machinery and equipment for assembly, polishing, and quality checking. Besides standard products, it also assembles non-standard and customised fibre optic cables recreated from customer's samples or drawings, and undertakes repair of fibre optic cables. General characteristics: fibre dia ? standard 50 microns, (others from 25 to 75 microns available); numerical aperture ? standard 0.55 NA (others available are 0.44, 0.58 and 0.66); operating temperature ? standard up to 250?C (higher temperature available upon request); LG dia ? as required; LG lengths ? standard 1.2 and 3 mtr (max up to 9 mtr); types ? individual, bifurcated, multicated, ring and line; end coupling ? aluminium, brass, stainless steel or customised; coupling type ? straight-unthreaded or threaded, angled ? unthreaded or threaded or customised; and sheathing ? PVC, silicone, SS monocoil, SS interlock, SS interlocked with PVC or silicone layer or customised. Speciality of Epsilon lightguides: high light transmission; excellent flexibility; best and ? surface polishing for better performance; high fibre density for better light to size ratio and customisation possible.
