About engionic Fiber Optics
engionic Fiber Optics GmbH, based in Berlin-Adlershof, has been designing and manufacturing custom fiber-optic light guide solutions and fiber-optic sensors for over 25 years. The portfolio includes fiber-optic assembly of glass, plastic and fused silica fibers as single fibers or fiber bundles up to approx. 100 m in length, single-mode assemblies with common connector types, cross-section converters, vacuum feedthroughs, as well as transmission, reflection and medical probes. In addition, the company produces fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors for temperature and strain measurements, including housings, in-house precision mechanics and calibration from -40 °C to 700 °C. Manufacturing encompasses bonding, crimping and laser welding processes, fiber de-coating and annealing. Products are used, among other applications, in power plant monitoring, medical technology, industrial process monitoring, the oil and gas industry, and structural monitoring. The company supports customers from prototype construction through to series production and is part of the engionic corporate group.
