The mechanical properties of fiber optic rotary joints

how to choose a fiber optic rotary joint

Fiber optic rotary joints avoid the damaging of the optical fibers while minimizing light fluctuations when rotating. It can either transmit the light from the sources to

the sample and/or from the sample to a photodetector.

Fiber optic rotary joints (FORJs) in particular require exacting optical and mechanical character.Sometimes,it is designed for very harsh environments, being able

to withstand extremely strong vibrations, jolts, and shocks as well as humidity and seawater,high protection of IP 65 keeps out dust and humidity. From 1channe to 19

channes,design is available in single-mode, multi-mode, and mixed-fiber mode configurations
