In scenarios where fibers are butt-coupled to small waveguide devices, using ordinary fiber clamps makes it difficult to support and position the fiber end close enough to the waveguide input port. The tapered structure at the end of the LBTEK FSV1 fiber clamp allows users to visually inspect the fiber-waveguide interface. The fiber can be secured using the two included FSM1 magnetic pressure blocks, which are also available for separate purchase. Two M3 mounting screws and a wrench are included.

The FSV2 fiber optic clamp provided by LBTEK is used to connect fibers to the FCSS-5 series five-axis stainless steel fiber optic translation stage for alignment. This clamp gently secures the fiber in a precision V-groove, with a lower V-groove that matches the five-axis translation stage. The fiber is locked in place by side screws on the V-groove. Additionally, the lower surface of the clamp features an M4 threaded hole, allowing it to be directly mounted on a post.

The LBTEK Magnetic Briquette is designed to work with the FSV1 fiber clamp, securely holding bare fibers in place on the FSV1 fixture. Its base features soft foam padding to protect bare fibers from damage. It can also be used to replace the magnetic compression block included with the FSV1 or for building custom fiber assembly setups.

The FSV3 fiber optic clamp provided by LBTEK features precision V-grooves and rubber pads, designed to securely grip the buffer layer of optical fibers without causing damage. The magnetic attraction force can be adjusted via an M4 set screw. With an M4 threaded base, the fiber clamp can be connected to Ø12.7 mm optical posts or integrated into optical components on breadboards or optical platforms.

LBTEK offers fiber optic clamp holder that simultaneously drive both sides of the clamping mechanism through a single actuation knob. This dual-sided clamping mechanism ensures the installed device is centered on the supporting surface. Three angled clamping cylindrical surfaces provide slight downward pressure and stable three-point contact, with one clamping point located at the end of a flexible support rod, allowing the holder to accommodate optical devices of various sizes.

The LBTEK  Fiber Optic Clamp Holder features a grooved insert at its center with six mounting surfaces, compatible with optical fibers or other cylindrical components ranging from 125 µm to 2.66 mm in outer diameter. To use, simply rotate the insert to align the correct mounting groove with the clamping arm, then secure it using the included M4 set screw. The holder is designed for quick installation and removal of various optical components, including bare fibers.
