Proximion AB, a world-class provider of optical modules and sub-systems based on FBG-technology, today announced the launch of Customized FBGs. Proximion’s new product release allows companies to add the benefits of state-of-the-art FBGs to their product offerings, quickly and efficiently, with a minimum investment and without extensive fiber optic knowledge.
Integrating Proximion’s customized FBGs provide companies new, unique opportunities for product and system enhancements. The technology is stable and durable, cost effective and immune to EMI. Potential application areas include fiber optic temperature and strain sensors, laser filtering/locking, optical communications, medical imaging, metrology and more.
With FBGs more than 10 times longer than any competitor’s Proximion’s FBGs can be manufactured with higher precision, resolution and operating range. The superior performance of the ultra-long FBG-technology has already resulted in a number of volume applications within the telecom and defense industry.
Proximion is a reliable partner that uses a flexible writing technique which allows for smaller series but can also guarantee performance in volume applications due to a highly automated production process. Today a strong majority of the Tier-1 system vendors, several Tier-1 operators and the defense industry in several countries belong to the broad customer base that takes advantage of Proximion’s unique ultra-long FBGs to improve their products and systems.
