| Bubbles in Cladding Portion | > 2.4mm marked as unusual; clustered bubbles merged |
| Impurities | Not allowed; treated as unusual portion in length |
| Surface Scratches | > 0.5mm depth or > 10mm length marked as unusual |

4. Usable Weight Calculation
The chargeable weight is calculated based on a quartz glass density of 2.2g/cm³. Our precise calculation method ensures fair billing based on the actual usable preform length (Lcha), excluding defects.
Formula: W = (π/4) × OD_avg² × Lcha × (2.2/100) g
FAQ
What shapes of quartz glass incoming materials can Opticlumos process for custom preforms?
Leveraging our comprehensive special optical fiber manufacturing platform, we can process an extensive range of geometric profiles. Our deep hole drilling and special-shaped slotting technologies effortlessly accommodate round, square, rectangular, and regular polygon bars. Furthermore, our advanced plane polishing technology has absolutely no limits on the shape of incoming materials, empowering true bespoke structural solutions for your sensing and aerospace applications.
What is the maximum precision and depth achievable with your deep hole drilling technology?
For complex designs such as photonic crystal fiber and multi-core preforms, we guarantee industry-leading tolerances. Our drilling depth spans from 1mm up to 550mm (varying by specific pore size), with a remarkable minimum hole spacing of just 1mm. Throughout the process, we maintain strict geometrical control, including a hole out-of-roundness of ≤ 0.01mm and a precision accuracy error of ± 0.05mm during slotting.
Can you manufacture multi-faceted preforms for active doping and specialty fiber applications?
Absolutely. Our advanced plane polishing technology is engineered to machine anywhere from 1 to 16 distinct polygon faces on a single preform. This capability is ideal for fabricating elliptical core fibers and active doping prefabricated rods. Additionally, our cylindrical polishing technology ensures a flawless optical interface with an exceptional surface roughness of Ra ≤ 0.10 μm, maximizing signal integrity.
G.652.D Single-Mode Fiber Preform Buyer Guide
This 150 mm-class bending-insensitive single-mode preform is designed for drawing G.652.D fiber, with more than 60% of drawn fiber expected to meet G.657.A1 bending-performance requirements under suitable and stable drawing conditions. The specified average preform diameter is 145-155 mm.
Key Selection Points
- Confirm the target drawn-fiber standard: ITU-T G.652.D and any G.657.A1 bending-performance requirement.
- Review average outer diameter, within-preform diameter fluctuation, effective length and total length.
- Align draw-tower conditions with the target attenuation, mode-field diameter and cutoff wavelength.
- Define appearance-inspection, usable-length and charged-weight acceptance rules.
- Confirm testing, documentation, packaging and delivery requirements before production.
Expected Drawn-Fiber Performance
- Attenuation: ≤0.34 dB/km at 1310 nm and ≤0.20 dB/km at 1550 nm
- Cable cutoff wavelength: ≤1260 nm
- Mode-field diameter at 1310 nm: 8.8-9.6 µm
