Custom Fiber Optic Design Solutions

Industrial Fiber Optics provides a complete range of product solutions for clients in the lighting, sensor, automation and networking applications or industries. We have a staff of engineers and technicians that can assist in a product's technical design (Custom & OEM Designs) and in the design-for-manufacturability for high volume products. Our technical specialty is products employing plastic optical and large core silica fiber and cable. The key element of the design is often the optical fiber or cable. We have established key partnerships with key vendors manufacturing plastic (pmma) optical fiber/cable and large core step index fibers.

We are interested in requests for any semi-custom products based on our standard products or for custom designs using the raw optical fiber/cable that we established suppliers and process. Key raw material partnerships include:

• Asahi Kasei plastic (pmma) optical fiber and cable
• OFS Specialty Photonics large-core step-index silica fiber
• Mitsubishi Chemical Eska optical fiber and cable
• Polymicro polyamide sheathed step-index silica fiber

We are experts in manufacturing specific fiber optic assemblies which includes processes such cutting raw material into specific lengths, custom terminations, sheathing and labeling. Our internal engineering, manufacturing and quality resources and skills include:

• Technical design staff
• Proof of concept prototypes
• Design for manufacturability review
• Pilot production with qualification reports
• In-house high speed Swiss Screw Machines
• 4-Axis CNC milling machines
• Numerous manual lathes, mills and precision drills
• Formlabs 3D printer
• 5 production measure-cut-strip fiber handling machines
• Polymer fiber optic draw tower
• Mechanical, RAM Optical and Zeiss OI optical inspection to accuracies under 10 µm
• 18 fiber polishing machines
• Numerous pmma end finishing mills
• Laser marking
• Numerous product labeling machines
• ISO 9000:2015 qualified.
