Light Guide Rods
SCHOTT’s innovative light guide rods ensure perfect illumination for instruments in dentistry, endoscopy, level sensing and many other fields in industry. Our advanced shaping processes enable a large variety of different shapes, bending angles and cross-sections. We also act as an expert partner when you need to develop challenging designs.
Perfect light transmission
Cutting-edge glass optical fibers such as the eco-friendly PURAVIS® family offer high light transmission and enable sustainable solutions. Due to a very low color shift, illuminated objects retain their natural color. In addition, thanks to an improved numerical aperture, the light guides capture more light from the very start.
Extreme geometries
SCHOTT's special production processes facilitate extreme bending angles and tapering, which are highly valued in the medical and industrial sectors where space is precious. We also offer a wide range of geometries with exact measurement in small tolerances and consistent reproduction.
Performance, stability, resilience
SCHOTT components offer outstanding optical performance with excellent white light transmission. They benefit from high chemical stability, thermal shock resistance and mechanical resilience, which are invaluable in challenging environments. We offer lead-, arsenic- and antimony-free PURAVIS® fibers for an environmentally friendly solution.
