Where to Buy Optical Sensors

Our fiber Bragg grating based packaged sensors are available in a wide range of optical specifications and mechanical configurations. For custom OEM sensors, our company works closely with each customer to optimize the packaging for the sensors they would like to have manufactured by us. Technica undertakes a rigorous development process before products release. We are committed to continuous improvements after release to insure performance to the highest of standards.

The newly developed optical sensor line newLight enables large strain measurement ranges at increased long-term stability. It is the ideal choice for structural health monitoring due to its fast and easy installation and its resistance to environmental conditions such as humidity, rust, and salt even over extremely long distances.

The compatibility with standard telecom cables makes this line very cost efficient – especially for medium-to-high channel applications. The newLight range is based on the Fiber Bragg Grating technology and offers optical sensors for measurements of strain, temperature, accelerometer, and tilt.

In addition to fiber optical sensors that measure strain, temperature, acceleration, tilt or displacement, HBK also offers optical interrogators, software, as well as service and support for every application.

Fiber Bragg grating sensors are commonly used in structural deformation and temperature monitoring. Short-period fiber grating sensors are commonly used, and their reflection wavelengths are called Bragg wavelengths. Such sensors are called FBG sensors.
