Fibre optics / light conductors

Laser-based methods and fibre optics technologies have established a firm place for themselves in industrial production. Particularly high demands are made on the lines from the light source to the tool. They must be resistant to tensile loads and to kinking, resistant to transversal loads and offer maximum safety – even in the event of damage to the inner laser conductor, no light may escape to the outside. Particularly when using lasers, the supply lines directly at the tool head must be highly flexible and extremely sturdy.
Witzenmann is the only manufacturer to produce the interior coil of the hose from round wire. This offers the advantage of an absolutely smooth and non-abrasive inner surface. Optical waveguides and light conductors can thus be inserted more easily and are not damaged by sharp edges, etc. Depending on the area of use, the hoses are sheathed with PU or PVC.

Technical features:

  • Extremely sturdy, even with high-speed operating cycles and high impact forces
  • Bending radius limited by design to protect the inner light conductor
  • High tensile strength thanks to metal or fibreglass braiding
  • Absolutely crush-proof
  • Different hose designs for the best economic solution for the particular application
  • Integral safety system
  • Available ready made-up or off-the-reel
  • Flat wire coil made from round material
  • Unaffected by external influences 
  • High reversed bending strength
