Safe handling of fiberglass, connectors & optical assemblies – with a system.
Glass components are particularly sensitive to mechanical stress, contamination, and distortion. This includes, among other things:
📏 Micro and macro optics
🧷 Fiber optics, fiber optic components, hollow glass
🔗 Connecting elements made of glass or glass ceramic
💊 Medical sensor glasses & diagnostic inserts
Conventional holders often cause pressure points, micro-cracks, or contamination – with negative consequences for optical performance, service life, and processability.
ZELL part carrier systems have been specially developed for the stress-free, automatable and cleaning-compatible holding of glass components.
You enable a consistent, secure material flow – from cutting to processing and cleaning, all the way to assembly or optical inspection.
Fiber Optic Components:
In fiber optic technology, ZELL part carriers enable stress-free and reproducible mounting of sensitive optical fibers and their connectors. Even with minimal component diameters, fibers are securely fixed - without micro-movement, deformation or contact damage.
Medical Technology:
For sensory glass elements or diagnostic optics, ZELL offers carrier systems that are specially designed for the requirements of medical technology: easy to clean, validatable and with contamination-free storage. This enables safe integration into validated manufacturing and cleaning processes.
Optomechanics:
Complex hybrid components made of glass, metal, and plastic can be precisely positioned and stored in custom-made hybrid workpiece carriers from ZELL. This ensures high process stability during assembly, testing, or laser-based finishing.
Micro lenses & glass carriers:
For very small optical components, ZELL offers flexible holding systems with protective rings and defined pre-tensioning. These ensure secure fixation without mechanical stress - ideal for high-precision processes and sensitive optical surfaces.
