ProCoater Fiber Recoater

Refractive Index 1.55; Viscosity at 25°C 200-300 cps Norland Optical Adhesive 86 is an adhesive that will cure optically clear when exposed to long wavelength ultraviolet or visible light (blue-violet). The adhesive has low viscosity and meets the Bellcore specifications of 85C/85RH for 2000 hours. NOA 86 is recommended for bonding glass or plastic. NOA 86 is cured by ultraviolet light between 315 to 400 nanometers and visible light between 400 to 420 nanometers. The peak absorption wavelengths are 325, 365 and 400 nanometers. Minor absorption wavelengths are 410 and 420 nm. Full cure requires 2.5 Joules/cm 2 . When fully cured, NOA 86 has very good adhesion and solvent resistance, but it has not reached its optimum adhesion to glass. This will come with aging over a period of about 1 week in which a chemical bond will form between the glass and adhesive. This optimum adhesion can also be obtained by aging at 50C for 12 hours.NOA 86 can withstand temperatures before aging from -15C to 90C when used for glass bonding. After aging, it will withstand temperatures from -125C to 125C.Typical Properties of NOA 86 Liquid Color Slight yellow tint that disappears upon curing Modulus (psi) 7,834 Tensile (psi) 360,400 Elongation at Failure 2.8% Hardness - Shore D 75 Keep NOA 86 in a cool (5-22 °C) dark place.

1 to 48 Channels; Channel Spacing 250 µm; Dimensions 10.4 x 3.8 x 1 to 10.4 x 14.8 x 1 mm; Matching Pyrex Lids; Fiber Type SM, MM, PM OZ Optics’ VGC series of V-Groove chips assists in developing next generation photonic devices. The array components allow precise alignment of up to 48 either ribbonized or individual fibers in a linear array. Utilizing VGC V-Grooves with a Pyrex lid allows UV or heat curing of the fibers into the array and attachment to another device. The side wall design incorporated in the rear of the V-Groove chip enhances the overall assembly’s strength and rigidity and reduces breakages. Standard channel spacing is 250 µm, other channel spacings are available upon request - for further information, please contact the AMS Technologies optical fiber experts. Key Features: Up to 48 Channel V-Groove Arrays High-Accuracy V-Grooves Using Etched Silicon or Machined Glass Compatible With 125/250 µm Diameter Single Mode (SM), Multi Mode (MM) and Polarization Maintaining (PM) Fibers 0.5 µm Channel Spacing Accuracy Designed to Meet Telcordia Requirements Silicon and Glass Versions Applications: Pigtailing of Integrated Optical Devices; Connection to Planar Waveguide Devices; Attachment to an Array of Active Devices; Connection of MEMS Devices and Miniaturized Fiber Optic Components; Construction of DWDM and Multi-channel Devices

All Necessary Tools Included; Special Version for PM Connectors Available; Sturdy Aluminium Case; Weight 7.3 kg OZ Optics’ comprehensive fiber optic termination kits include all of the tools necessary to make field terminations of fibers with commercially available connectors. The kits come in a sturdy, dent-proof aluminium case, providing easy transport with rugged protection. The total weight of the kits is 7.3 kg. The kits contain enough consumable supplies to process about 100 connectors. The consumable supplies may be ordered separately. A special version of the termination kit is available for polarization maintaining (PM) connectors. This kit includes special low-shrinkage epoxies to minimize stresses on the fibers. The epoxy is available as a separate item. The kits include the following tools: Five 230 mm by 330 mm, 5 µm Grit Polishing Film Five 230 mm by 330 mm, 1 µm Grit Polishing Film Ten 230 mm by 330 mm, 0.3 µm Grit Polishing Film 100X Microscope With a Connector Adapter Five Packs of Two-Component Epoxy Three Sizes of Buffer Tube Strippers Screwdriver With Four Bits Glass Polishing Plate Diamond Pen Scribe Index Matching Gel Polishing Disc T-Type Stripper Cotton Swabs Crimping Tool Epoxy Mixer & Pad Utility Knife Kim Wipes Scissors Tape Fiber Cleaner Tweezers Folding Knife Cable Stripper In addition, a number of accessories are available for the kit that may be ordered separately. A connector heater is available for curing the epoxy used in the terminating kit. The heater can handle 24 connectors at once and ensures even curing. A heat gun for curing epoxy and to shrink heat shrink tubing is also available.
