Hello, We currently have a Nova polishing system in our lab, but we do not have the adapters to enable bare fiber polishing. I was wondering if it's possible to purchase just the adapters for bare fiber polishing relevant to our application to adapt our current system. Thanks!

Yes, we can fabricate Fiber Adapters for fibers with diameters from 80um to >2mm. We will send you a quotation for a 175um Fiber Adapter.
