Fiber Stretchers
We offer the most extensive line of fiber stretchers available in today’s market. It begins with a family of 3 stretcher platforms designed to span a fiber stretch range from 0.14 mm to 6.40 mm (standardized to single mode fiber, applying maximum voltage drive).

Mid-Range Fiber Stretcher
PZ3
The PZ3 is the mid-range member of our family of fiber stretchers. It is a fiber wound piezoelectric element for use in a wide range of optical interferometric measurement and sensing system applications. Typical uses include open loop demodulation, sensor simulation, variable optical delay, general purpose fiber interferometry and large angle modulation of interferometric phase.

High-speed Fiber Stretcher
PZ1
The PZ1 is the high-speed member of our family of fiber stretchers. It is a fiber wound piezoelectric element for use in a wide range of optical interferometric measurement and sensing system applications. Typical uses include open loop demodulation, sensor simulation, variable optical delay, general purpose fiber interferometry and large angle modulation of interferometric phase.

High-efficiency Fiber Stretcher
PZ2
The PZ2 provides the most extensive stretch of our stretcher product family. It is a fiber wound piezoelectric element for use in a wide range of optical interferometric measurement and sensing system applications. Typical uses include open loop demodulation, sensor simulation, white-light scanning interferometry and large angle modulation of interferometric phase. The PZ2 is ideal for use in OCT [Optical Coherence Tomography] and OCDR [Optical Coherence Domain Reflectometry] applications requiring scattering or boundary definition measurements.
