applications
Plastic optical fibres from Toray Industries are suitable for applications ranging from datacommunications to illumination, electronic displays and optical sensing.
Moritex has made further additions to its range of high-performance plastic optical fibres from Toray Industries for applications including datacommunications, illumination, electronic displays and optical sensing The plastic optical fibres use a step index structure (NA 0.54) with a core of high purity polymethyl methacrylate and cladding of a special fluorinated polymer to provide a lightweight product with spectral attenuation as low as 0.15dB/m at 650nm

Programmable UV source is a flexible cure
A novel programmable feedback UV light source maintains extremely stable UV irradiation from a quartz halogen lamp through proprietary optical feedback control.
Advantageously the fibres also offer no interference to electrical signals.
The fibres are available in a range of spool sizes with different core diameters (0.125 to 3.0mm) and can be delivered with or without cladding.
Offering high flexibility, with bend radii as small as 9mm, the plastic optic fibres enhance applications versatility.
The fibre is also extremely easy to use and terminate, increasing productivity and reducing waste.
As a major stockholder of Toray plastic optical fibre, Moritex is able to offer competitive pricing and deliveries on small to OEM scale requirements.
