Top-level product category: icon fiber optics

Related product categories: fiber arrays, fibers, fiber optics, fiber-optic plates

Fiber bundles, comprising multiple glass or plastic fibers, are used for a variety of applications including illumination, imaging, and sensing. They facilitate the transmission of light or images through flexible and robust configurations, making them ideal for medical endoscopy, industrial inspection, and telecommunications.

Making Good Purchase Decisions

As the most professional photonics purchasing portal, RP Photonics helps you to not only to find all relevant suppliers (not limited to our advertisers), but also to make good purchasing decisions.

NEW: Structured Decision Process

Purchasing involves a lot of responsibility. We recommend that you apply best practice by using the following structured process: Go through the following expandable sections, complete the form and finally come to a purchase decision. You can then print that to a PDF for documenting the process.

Our article on best practices for purchasing and another one explaining this tool give you valuable insights.

1. Understand the technical background

It is important to sufficiently understand the technology before buying.

Use the comprehensive learning resources of RP Photonics:

If you need personal help, contact RP Photonics to get technical consultancy.

2. Define your requirements

It is essential to fully understand and clearly define your requirements before you buy.

We recommend that you develop a list of clear specifications according to your specific needs, against which you can later check the suitability of found product offers:

To help you, we have already listed some aspects we recommend you consider when buying fiber bundles. Of course, there may be other aspects that are relevant to your specific case.

This list is for your own preparation, and can later (possibly in modified form) be used for quotation requests to suppliers.

Otherwise, you will need to talk to your technical colleagues.

If you cannot sufficiently clarify your requirements, you may want to get technical consultancy from RP Photonics.

You find these buttons in the supplier list below or under "3. Find suitable suppliers".

3. Find suitable suppliers

We suggest three steps:

  • Below, you can find our list of suppliers for fiber bundles. Use the checkboxes to mark possibly suitable suppliers.
  • The selected suppliers will appear below this list, along with your list of specifications. You can then indicate which specifications they meet according to your research. (You should finalize your specifications before doing this.)
  • Based on the results, you can finally choose a supplier that is hopefully a good enough fit.

fiber bundles

Guiding Photonics uses capillary hollow core fiber bundles to enable the delivery of radiation from multiple mid-IR laser sources in a single connector. Note: the fibers are side-by-side rather than fused. In addition to hollow core fibers for the mid infrared, we can also include standard solid-core fibers for visible, NIR, and SWIR wavelengths.

fiber bundles

art photonics produces fiber bundles for different spectral ranges:

Round-to-Round (R/R) and Round-to-Line (R/L) fiber bundles are most popular, since they are used in a wide range of fiber-optic sensors and probes.

art photonics offers optical fiber bundles in straight, bifurcated (Y-cable) and multi-furcate design.

For spectroscopic fiber probes we are offering metal-coated fiber bundles, which suppress cross-talk between fibers, resulting in a signal/noise ratio which is higher than in similar bundles with fiber polymer coatings.
