Industrial laser systems get bump in power handling

The FD-80 high power keyed connector by Fiberguide Industries delivers power handling up to 750 watts. Designed for demanding power requirements in cutting, drilling, marking and welding applications, the connector assemblies are made from all silica optical fibers with core sizes from 100μm to 1500μm. An epoxy-free cantilevered nose design isolates fibers from the connector for safe thermal energy dissipation without burning surrounding material. The devices also feature a laser polished fiber face to promote better power transmission and mitigate damage to the end face.

The connectors are available with anti-reflective coating and a variety of sheathing options. Contact company for pricing and delivery.
