200601 Capab Broch_New 12/13/02 1:45 PM Page 1 Welcome to CeramOptec When your applications demand quality, reliability, and proven performance, CeramOptec delivers with experience and service that is unmatched in the specialty fiber optics industry. Innovative Fiber Optics...Every Step of the Way™ 200601 Capab Broch_New 12/13/02 1:46 PM Page 2 Innovative Fiber Optics...Every Step of the Way™ At CeramOptec, we are committed to excellence. By maintaining complete control over the entire production process—from the manufacture of our fiber optic preforms to the finished fiber product—we bring the highest quality control, innovative solutions, and competitive pricing to our customers. As the only specialty fiber optic manufacturer to make its own preforms, CeramOptec takes pride in its comprehensive production process—every step of the way. Using our patented PCVD process, we produce high-grade specialty fibers with a wide range of profiles and dopands, numerical apertures from 0.12 to 0.66, and high radiation resistance levels. Next, we draw the fiber on our own draw towers and spool it, simultaneously testing for strength and tolerance specifications. Finally, we manufacture and assemble the fiber optic bundles and assemblies, ensuring customers the finest transmission, highest temperature capability, and widest range of numerical apertures. CeramOptec—The Global Leader in Specialty Fiber Optics Manufacturing great products alone does not make a leader. At CeramOptec, we have made a sincere commitment to high quality service and support as well as ongoing product and market research. We are dedicated to employing and developing the industry’s most knowledgeable global team of scientists, engineers, and quality control specialists—as well as sales, marketing, and customer service professionals. CeramOptec has emerged as the industry leader thanks to our extraordinary employees and our extraordinary products—providing unmatched service, innovative solutions, and years of experience. Breaking Down Barriers Across the Spectrum Optical fibers are the guiding light of laser and light sensing systems. Without them, we would not be able to manufacture computer chips, monitor aircraft engines, or perform minimally invasive laser surgery. CeramOptec offers a comprehensive line of high quality fiber assemblies, bundles, and fused-end bundles that exhibit exceptional temperature capabilities, power handling, and transmission values. We manufacture stock and custom silica/silica, plastic-clad silica, hard polymer-clad silica optical fibers; and low loss bundles and assemblies for UV, VIS and IR transmission, medical laser delivery, sensors, plasma fusion, and spectroscopy. 200601 Capab Broch_New 12/13/02 1:47 PM Page 3 The only specialty fiber optics company to make its own preforms, CeramOptec adheres to the most stringent quality parameters every step of the way— setting the standards for quality, cost, and performance. Our innovative fibers are drawn from the tallest draw tower in North America, then spooled while simultaneously testing for strength and tolerance. By maintaining complete control over the entire production process—from preform manufacture to finished fibers, bundles, and assemblies—we provide superior quality control, custom solutions, and competitive pricing. And with several facilities worldwide, we are able to offer our customers local, prompt, and reliable service. 200601 Capab Broch_New 12/13/02 1:48 PM Page 4 CeramOptec has spent nearly two decades advancing the field of specialty optical fibers. Our fibers are the guiding light of lasers and are used in spacecraft sensing and controls, particle detection, and nuclear physics. Many applications, from chemical analysis and remote illumination to laser surgery and photodynamic therapy (PDT) require CeramOptec’s precise fiber optics—which provide improved wavelength accuracy, a wide range of numerical apertures for just the right light, and limitless core/clad relationships. 200601 Capab Broch_New 12/13/02 1:48 PM Page 5 Our unique, patented manufacturing process allows us to make these products available in a wide variety of diameters and coatings for the broadest range of wavelengths—all assembled to your specifications. As the manufacturer of the world’s first UV non-solarizing optical fiber, it is CeramOptec’s innovation that sets us apart in the complex technology of optical fibers and allows us to break down the barriers of UV spectroscopy and sensing applications. It also enables us to offer our customers the most Spectroscopic Applications Ultraviolet (UV) and Visible comprehensive line of unique, patented products in the industry.
