Induction fiber optics sealing Benefits
-
Meets tight production tolerances with precise localized heat to small areas creating pinpoint accuracy
-
Increases production rates with faster heating cycles
-
Reduces defect rates with repeatable, reliable heat
-
Eliminates variability from operator-to-operator, shift-to-shift
-
Maintains metallurgical characteristics of the individual metals

A special steel tube and coil combination is used to build an induction heating oven to cure the fiber on a continuous basis. The ceramic fiber travels in an alumina tube inside a hot steel tube
Heating a Kovar Ferrule for Glass Soldering
The solder formed a relatively uniform domed seal around the fiber despite the asymmetry of the open C coil. It took under 10 seconds to heat the part to soldering temperature
Hermetic Sealing a Ferrule & Fiber Optic Cable
To heat a Kovar ferrule and fiber optic cable to 297°F within 10 seconds for a soldering application, to form a hermetic seal
Solder Fiber Optic Cable to Ferrule & Preform
Induction heating provides rapid localized heat only where needed, repeatable, consistent results with clean, controllable joints
Hermetically sealing a fiber optic cable in a kovar ferrule
Induction heating provides instant start up time, requiring very little power resources, pin point accuracy, a clean source of heat which is easily integrated into existing automated systems
Curing Epoxy On A Laser Diode Assembly
To heat epoxy on a laser diode assembly to 250°F within 5 seconds for a curing application
Induction Melting Glass for Fiber Drawing
To heat a metal susceptor vessel to 2200°F within 25 minutes with induction for a fiberglass melting application
Soldering Ferrule and Module Assembly
To heat ferrule and module assemblies for a soldering application in the fiber optics industry.
