Square Formed Fibers

Up until recently, the core geometry of fiber optics have almost exclusively been circular. With new geometrical possibilities, fiber optics is now not only guiding the laser beam to the workpiece but also actively forming the beam shape. Square formed fiber optics is specially aimed for high precision work where the beam shape is critical.

The square formed optical fibers are available as an option for the QBH, RQB and QD in core sizes 100x100, 200x200, 400x400, 600x600, 800x800 and 1000x1000 µm.
