Precision fiber alignment within the ferrule
Micro-Metric’s ultra-precise coordinate measuring systems are ideally suited to analyze depth and spacing of v-grooves in multi-fiber terminators. In addition to providing detailed information regarding shape, angle, and location of each v-groove sidewall, a “virtual fiber” can be mathematically placed in each v-groove, and the relative alignment of the resulting group of fibers can be accurately determined. After fibers are assembled into the grooves, Micro-Metric systems measure the actual alignment of the fiber cores to 10 nm precision. Ferrule concentricity, roundness, chamfer angle, and end-face geometry are other important parameters in the measurement of fiber-optic components that are addressed with unparalleled precision by Micro-Metric coordinate measuring systems.
