Manufacturers of Mechanical Test Equipment for Optical Fibers

We manufacture equipment for mechanical testing of optical fiber.  Our instruments can make a variety of measurements including tensile strength measurement, two-point bending strength measurement, static fatigue, dynamic fatigue, coating strip force and coating pullout force. All our equipment at least meets and generally substantially exceeds the requirements of current industry standard test procedures.

Table Top Tensile Tester With Long Gauge Length Option Now Available

The compact Table Top Tensile Tester (T4) is now available. A long gauge length option (up to 20 meters of more test length) has recently been developed. Click here for more information.

 

Data Analysis and Graphing Plugins for SigmaPlot - Version 2 Released

bullet

Version 2.00 of the Data Analysis and Graphing Plugins for SigmaPlot have been released soon which include the following enhancements:
bullet

Can now handle more data sets (up to 6 simultaneously in a dynamic or static fatigue plot).

bullet

Better compliance with standard test methods including FOTP-28, ITM-13, IEC 60793-1-33, ASTM C1239.

bullet

More analysis options including dropping the weakest measurement at each speed, grouping measurements with a similar (but not identical) speed.

bullet

Easier to use directly from the SigmaPlot menu bar.

bullet

Can now start with a blank worksheet - any missing information, such as symbols, colors, line types etc. are automatically placed in the worksheet if they are missing.

bullet

Automatic scaling of data - for example can accept strength in a variety of units (MPa, ksi etc.) and will automatically scale them to GPa - or if you do not like GPa, an arbitrary scale factor can be applied. The scale factor does not have to be the same for all measurements.

bullet

More graph versions - color, monochrome, extended axis ranges.

Extra wide version of the Automatic Fiber Loader

bullet

A new so-called "Extra wide" option, together with the Wide and Standard Automatic Fiber Loader options, extend the range of fiber diameters that can be automatically tested with the Twp-Point Bend system.  The standard Automatic Fiber Loader was designed for fibers whose glass diameter is around 80 to 125 µm.  The wide version can be used for glass diameters up to about 400 µm and the extra wide version up to about 600 µm and beyond. Both the wide and extra wide versions can still test thinner fibers as well as the thicker ones for which they are designed glass diameter   More....
