NOVA™'s Profile Videoscope allows the real-time monitoring of component
polishing. This videoscope aids with bare fiber/component positioning
and confirms process completion. Teamed with measurement software,
this system verifies the endface geometry of fibers, waveguides and
arrays. SV9 is typically mounted on the front of NOVA for geometry monitoring and control. SV11 is side-mount for monitoring fiber and waveguide material removal for component length control.
