Q
Hello, We currently have a Nova polishing system in our lab, but we do not have the adapters to enable bare fiber polishing. I was wondering if it's possible to purchase just the adapters for bare fiber polishing relevant to our application to adapt our current system. Thanks!
A
Yes, we offer bare fiber adapters for all Krell polishing machines. We will send you a quotation.

We are looking for a desktop fiber polishing machine capable of polishing form about 300µm up to 2000 µm fibers. Ideally fiber advancement should not rely on gravity. Only 0° angle polish. Are there any demo units available in Germany/Europe?
A
Krell offers several polishing systems for bare fiber applications. Our local representative will be reaching out to you with more information and a quotation.

Q
Hi, I'm organising a Stores rearrangement project in the UK. Do your polishing films require specific storage conditions i.e. temperature, should they be stored in the dark, humidity etc?
A
Standard ambient environmental conditions are fine. Also, no need to storage in darkness, it is suggested to avoid direct sunlight to prevent product fading.

Q
Do any of these machines have to be calibrated? If so, can you provide information on how often and who calibrates the machines. Thank you
A
For your application and system set-up, there is no need for routine calibration. You can confirm system alignment using the videoscope inspection system and measurement software. If polish angles deviate from your target specifications, the workholder provides the means for in-house adjustment.
