YOEC Wins China Optical Industry Innovation Award at OVC EXPO 2026

YOEC Showcases Innovation in Specialty Optical Fiber and Intelligent Manufacturing at OVC EXPO 2026

From May 18 to 20, 2026, the 21st “Optics Valley of China” International Optoelectronic Exposition was held at the Optics Valley Convention & Exhibition Center in Wuhan. Focusing on strategic sectors including fiber optic sensing, intelligent optical communications, and laser manufacturing, this year’s exhibition brought together leading global optoelectronic enterprises and industry experts.

Yangtze Optical Electronic Co., Ltd. (YOEC, Stock Code: 688143) showcased its high-end equipment and metrology & testing solutions at Booth 1B08 in Hall B1, demonstrating the company’s full industrial chain capabilities in specialty optical fiber intelligent manufacturing and testing technologies.

On the opening day of the exhibition, the 2026 China Top 10 Optical Industry Technology Innovation Conference and Award Ceremony was held simultaneously. YOEC won the 2025 China Top 10 Optical Industry Technology Innovation Award for its “Intelligent Fully Automated Fiber Optic Gyroscope Coil Winding Technology.”
This technology effectively addresses key industry challenges associated with traditional winding processes, such as low efficiency, poor consistency, and difficult precision control. Through intelligent and automated process upgrades, the technology enables high-precision, high-consistency, and high-efficiency mass production of fiber optic gyroscope coils, significantly improving product performance.

The “China Top 10 Optical Industry Technology Awards” is one of the most influential annual professional awards in China’s optical industry, recognizing benchmark technologies with breakthrough innovation, industrial value, and industry-leading significance. This award fully demonstrates industry recognition of YOEC’s technological innovation and industrialization capabilities in fiber optic sensing and precision optical manufacturing.

At the exhibition, YOEC’s subsidiary, Optics Valley Metering & Calibration Co., Ltd. (OVMC), presented a range of core equipment, including MCVD systems, fiber drawing towers, fiber screening machines, and multi-axis fiber winding machines, covering the entire optical fiber manufacturing process.

Leveraging extensive expertise in optical fiber and optical device manufacturing, YOEC provides integrated capabilities in high-end equipment design and customization, production and testing integrated solutions, and complete turnkey delivery for mass production. The company owns multiple independent intellectual property rights in equipment design, manufacturing, and intelligent control technologies, earning strong recognition from industry customers.

YOEC also showcased its five core product portfolios, including specialty optical fibers, specialty optical cables, advanced materials, optical devices, and thermal management materials, demonstrating its integrated strengths across equipment manufacturing and application technologies:
Hollow-core anti-resonant fiber: overcoming the trade-off between damage threshold and nonlinearity in conventional solid-core fibers, making it an ideal solution for high-power laser transmission.
