HITRONIC® – SUPERFAST FIBRE OPTIC CABLES Our optical transfer media are unbeatably fast and secure when transferring large amounts of data in inter-office communication as well as in industry. They ensure superfast data transfer which is completely free of interference and is protected against monitoring. Not even electromagnetic interference can affect a HITRONIC® cable. Properties: — A very versatile range suitable for all applications, both indoor and outdoor. The cables are also mobile and can withstand great stress from environmental conditions. — Reliable, efficient and easy to install. — Extensive range of accessories. — Also highly flexible for use with drag chains.

Based on proven experience with the realisation of past successful projects MPS has designed and characterised a scalable Theta/Phi fiber positioner for Multi-Object Spectrographs. The positioner has been designed with the purpose of adapting readily to the requirements of any Multi-Object Spectrograph, which requires precise positioning of optical fibers. Whether MOONS, FPS, MEGARA, or DESI, each project has so far developed its own fiber positioner from scratch, with all of the risks and long lead times linked to such a complete new development. The positioner presented here intends to significantly reduce the development time, costs, and eliminate unforeseen risks. The design is easily scalable in size, length, and shape. The positioner size starts at a diameter of 9.5mm and is scalable to fit any customer specific requirements. It is capable of reaching any target within 5 µm with just two correction moves.

The SWIFT K33 is one of the high-end core-to-core optical welders, perfectly adapted to the Job of the installation. With a large 5-inch touch screen and a high-performance oven, it allows fiber connections in less than 20 seconds (weld + oven). It is compatible with the majority of 250 µm and 900 µm fibers, and pigtails and is also compatible with SOC connectors
