The FGC-G Fiber Optic Geometry Test System provides high-speed automated measurement of fiber end-face geometry. It uses the Reference Test Method (RTM): video grayscale technique described in Appendix B of standard IEC-60793-1-20.
Dark field of view illumination
Measurement of special fibers such as octagonal fibers and double-clad fibers
Dark field illumination method gives a clear image of the fiber end face
Standards compliant - very confident in its accuracy
Highly repeatable geometric measurements in a short period of time
Traceable calibration
Wide range of fiber grippers including Arden, Fujikura, FITEL, Sumitomo, etc.
Built-in LEDs meet uniform injection conditions for optical core testing
Fiber optic manufacturing
Special Optical Fiber Manufacturing
