Orbit™ Bare Fiber Coning and Chisel System

Orbit™ Bare Fiber Coning and Chisel System

Orbit™ enhances NOVA™'s bare fiber processing with conical and chisel tip shaping. Unique fiber tip geometries can be formed for lensing, sensing and light guiding applications.

The fiber rotation module can be mounted on standard NOVA™ variable angle and waveguide workholders.  Fiber "spin" speed is user adjustable, and can be set for continual rotation or the unique "360 auto-reverse" motion that prevent fiber twisting and torquing.

All variables are entered and selected via a touchscreen on the Orbit™ controller.  When combined with NOVA™ Auto-Angle Workholders, Orbit™ precisely positions the polishing fixture at the designed angle on a repeatable basis.

Q
We have a orbit bare fiber polishing system but the holders we have on accommodate a 125um polyimide to 155um. Now we are using a 125um fiber coated with single layer acrylate bringing dia up to 175um. Do you offer chisel tip fiber holders that will fit a 175um fiber?
A
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.

Q
Can this system be used to create just an angled flat facet on a fiber tip?
A
Yes. The standard angle range is 0 degrees (flat tip) to 50 degrees referenced off the vertical.
