and scientific applications. The company’s main business is the production of multimode and single-mode fibres as well as special fibres. Its core competence includes the manufacture of medical laser probes for minimally invasive surgery, therapy, diagnosis, industrial cables, fibre bundles and OEM products. Avantes develops and
manufactures spectrometers, light sources, software, fibre optic cables, and accessories. Products are highly customisable and adaptable to any specific application. The company’s products are widely used in OEM applications and markets, as well as in science and industry. AMS Technologies provides
an exceptionally large portfolio of fibres and fibre optics, ranging from optical fibres, patch cables, fibre bundles and assemblies to a broad variety of fibre components. AFL is a supplier of optical
fibres for lasers used in telecommunications, aerospace, and other industries. The company offers a range of single-mode and multimode fibres with high power handling capabilities. CSRayzer provides a number of
fibre-optic components, including polarisation-maintaining and single-mode fibre couplers, WDM couplers, isolators, circulators, filters, phase shifters, collimators and hybrid components. These components could work in full temperature conditions, and are suitable for special applications such as aerospace and military. Edmund Optics offers a variety of optical fibres, including jacketed or unjacketed optical grade or communications-grade fibre. Optical grade optical fibre is used for general industrial lighting or short-distance data transmission, while communications grade optical fibre is designed for optimal

visible light transmission for digital or analog links. The company also offers components, including patch cords, collimators, faceplates, or the tools needed for cutting or stripping the fibres. Fibercore is a UK-based company that specialises in the design and manufacture of specialty optical fibres for use in lasers and other applications. The firm provides a wide range of fibres for both single-mode and multimode applications. Fujikura is another major
manufacturer of optical fibres for lasers. A sizeable range of single-mode and multimode fibres for use in industrial, medical, and scientific applications are available from the firm.
Guiding Photonics produces
fibre-optic beam delivery solutions for mid-infrared, high-power and UV sources. The product range includes standard products, custom cables, and fibre bundles. iXblue offers a wide range of specialty optical fibres, either for lasers and amplifiers or sensing applications. Hundreds of fibre designs are available from stock, and custom versions are also available. Most of the fibres are also available in radiation-resistant versions, either for for use in nuclear environments or for space missions. NKT Photonics says that optical
fibres are at the heart of everything it does. The company embeds functionality into fibres to make its systems upon which they are based simpler and more reliable. The firm’s Crystal Fibre portfolio spans from nonlinear fibres for octave-spanning supercontinuum generation, over single-mode ytterbium gain fibres for high power lasers and amplifiers, to advanced hollow-core fibres guiding the light in air. OFS provides fibre optic
Omega Optical Filters’ spectrally complex coated fibre tips mean the difference between ‘Good’ and ‘Great’ signal-to-noise ratio in your optical system. It demonstrates robust hard-oxide-coated filter designs on the tips of the optical fibres and fibre bundles. Coated fibre tip applications are diverse. The company’s team has been leading the way in designing and manufacturing custom volume filters on flat glass for applications ranging from flow cytometry to hyperspectral imaging, PCR to LiDAR, and semiconductor inspection. Applying the filter directly to the fibre tips enables the ultimate
miniaturisation. These fibres can reach places that traditional systems can only dream of – inside a biopsy needle, an engine, or a bioreactor. The possibilities are endless. Omega Optical supports industry leaders in life science instrumentation, defence, aerospace, and semiconductor inspection, as well as many industrial applications, including UV sterilisation, environmental monitoring, and agriculture monitoring. Make sure you review its extensive design and manufacturing experience.
