Request InfoLaser Components Germany GmbHOLCHING, Germany, Feb. 16, 2015 — Laser Components offers two new optical fiber polishers from Ultra Tec for small series, prototypes and retropolishing. The Minipol polisher (pictured) is small, lightweight and can run on a battery for use in the field. The Nanopol polisher makes it possible to polish fibers, including large-diameter fibers, at almost any angle. For this purpose, they are equipped with an adjustable arm mount and an additional height control. Standard connector types in telecommunications, such as SC, LC, FC, E2000 and ST, can be equipped with a PC or APC polish; an SMA connector can be...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics Spectra August 2022 IssuePyroelectric Detectors and EmittersThe 55+ series of pyroelectric detectors and emitters from Laser Components GmbH are matched to provide results at wavelengths between 5 and 10 µm.
