Join the industry leaders at the 65th IWCS Conference on October 2 - 5, 2016 in Providence, RI, USA.

R&D Director Dr. Mikko Lahti welcomes you to visit our booth 207 to discuss high performance and cost effective manufacturing solutions for fiber optic cables. “IWCS is an important venue for the cable and connectivity industry and we are proud to join the Suppliers’ Exhibition” says Dr.Lahti.

At the conference Dr. Mikko Lahti will present his paper entitled "Exploring the Limits of Buffering Process for Both Standard and Micro Tubes" on Wednesday October 5 at session 16: Manufacturing & Processing Technologies. Dr. Lahti will be available during the whole conference (Oct. 2 - 5) and Suppliers’ Exhibition (Oct. 3 - 4) to discuss the results of his work and the manufacturing solutions currently available.

Our high performance solutions offer a wide variety of innovations. For example, the compression technology with tension feedback serves to keep precise control of excess fiber length (EFL) on our Fiber Optic
Secondary Coating Line OEL 40. And with OEL 40///Explore we have reached the ultra-high production speed of 1000 m/min.

Maillefer provides manufacturing solutions for every stage of the fiber optic cable process. The portfolio includes tight buffering, secondary coating, SZ stranding and jacketing lines available for production ranging from long haul cables to FTTx with low fiber counts and short lengths.
