Established in 1982, Fiberoptic Systems, Inc. (FSI) has refined the art of fiber drawing and bundling. FSI is the only fiber optics manufacturer on the West Coast that produces its own high transmission glass fiber for the whitest brightest light possible. In response to the growing needs of the marketplace, FSI moved to an expanded manufacturing facility in 2000. The facility houses corporate, sales and marketing, and all production disciplines. Their expanded optical fiber manufacturing enables them to respond faster and to a greater number of applications. This results in greater manufacturing efficiencies, provides a broader manufacturing base, and strengthens their customer relationships. FSI has a state-of-the-art fiber optic drawing tower, capable of producing more than 1,000 miles of optical fiber per eight hour shift. Multiple glass preforms are drawn together at a fiber feed rate of approximately 75 feet per second to produce glass fibers in bundles of various sizes as needed to meet production requirements.
