WPI's Photonics Center of Excellence in Friedberg, Germany provides a full range of optical components and optical sensing solutions, including proprietary multimode silica qualified fiber, optical assemblies and sub-assemblies serving instrumentation manufacturers. Our new, proprietary, qualified, multi-mode fiber offers the certainty that instrumentation manufacturers need by providing fiber products that not only demonstrate superior transmission, but have excellent consistency of transmission from one fiber product unit to the next fiber product unit.   

You can design your own optical fiber for WPI to build, or we can work together to design custom fibers for your application.  

  • Seven different multimode fiber materials - including qualified fibers for UV and NIR applications. WPI is the only company offering DIN 58145:2018-01 certified lowest basic attenuation at 200 nm.
  • Core diameter range from 100 - 3000 µm
  • O2 and pH optical sensing fiber
  • SMA, FC, ST, DIN or ferrule connector
  • Silicone coated braided tubing, standard Kevlar PVC furcation tubing or simple shrink tubing
  • Simple patch fiber
  • Furcated fiber assemblies (WPI will consult with you on the design, too.)
  • Transmission probes (Materials used can vary. Did you know WPI offers the smallest OD transmission probe on the market today?)
  • Complex fiber bundle assemblies
  • Liquid Waveguide Capillary Cells (LWCC) with long pathlengths for small sample volumes
  • Low Volume Flow Cell for FIA, HPLC and process analysis
  • Fluorescence probes for the detection of the transient response of free ion concentration

WPI's optical laboratory began in 1993 with our first patented liquid waveguide capillary cell (LWCC) for precise absorbance measurement of very low concentrations. Our long history of designing novel and low-cost, complex fiber products to go where light bulbs and detectors will not, enables instrumentation manufacturers to deliver Industry solutions with a smaller footprint, broader sensing capabilities and at reduced per unit cost. Our knowledge becomes part of your expertise and as a trusted supplier WPI's OEM Team actively engages with your team to streamline the product development process from initial manufacturing of prototypes to scaling up manufacturing to ensure alignment of the product delivery strategy.
