Interferometer VFI series

The VFI series are Fiber End-Face Inspection Interferometers for quickly checking End-Face quality on fibers from 125 to 2000 µm in diameter.

Introduction

The VFI is specifically designed for checking the surface quality and flatness of your cleaved or polished fibers. Users can view their fibers in a range of different views, both in 2D and 3D, allowing the users to get a full understanding of their cleaving or polishing process.

Features and Benefits

  • 3 different Fields of View
  • Flat and angled cleaves
  • Inspect and fringe mode
  • Automated or manual end angle measurement
  • 2D or 3D measurement mode
  • 3D end face height map
  • 2D measurement – real time; 3D measurement in under 7 seconds
  • Height data can be saved as a csv file
  • Data output as Excel or HTML reports

Applications

The VFI interferometer has proven itself in Research, Production and QA over and over and is widely used in the following applications:

  • Precision cleaver manufacture
  • Cleaver maintenance
  • Laser manufacture
  • Medical device manufacture
  • Fiber R&D
  • Specialty fiber manufacture
  • Development and testing of angled cleavers
  • Device pig-tailing
  • LDF cleaver manufacture/maintenance
  • Fiber end cap manufacture
  • Multifiber bundle manufacture
