GPX4000LZ Advanced Fiber Processing System with CO2 Laser and Graphite-Filament Heating

Supplier
Shconnet
Part Number
GPX4000LZ
Category
Optical Production Equipment
Origin
China

The GPX4000LZ advanced fiber-processing system combines CO2-laser and graphite-filament heat sources. This new generation of fiber and glass processing equipment integrates a CO2 laser with the established Thorlabs/Vytran GPX-3000 platform. A highly stable CO2 heat source provides up to40W with an innovative annular-beam design to address localized, nonuniform fiber heating associated with the previous generation of CO2-laser processing. The source also identifies the established GPX-3850 system as the GPX4000LZ base platform. Vytran True Core Imaging supports high-quality splicing of specialty and large-core fibers. The system offers high-resolution imaging, with fiber-positioning and control precision stated to be an order of magnitude higher than other fiber splicers.

Key Features

High-precision microscopy with a precision digital CCD camera; low-loss, high-strength splices; fiber-end-face inspection for high-performance fused-device development; annular-beam CO2-laser and graphite-filament fusion. Uniform360-degree fiber heating enables precise, controlled tapering without fiber rotation for a wide range of fused and tapered devices. Precisely adjustable temperatures accommodate many glass types. Low cost, no consumables and easy operation, with a graphical interface for operation and data storage. The graphite-filament furnace has travel up to±65mm for long fiber tapers, packaged couplers and other devices. Fully integrated mechanics provide accurate positioning during processing. Fiber-holder-module travel reaches180mm for tapering applications. Positioning fixtures include insert blocks and miniature transfer stages. Supports precision fused components, including fiber tapers, combiners and end caps; specialty large-diameter fiber splicing; clean fiber splices; and high-power fiber-laser manufacture.
