The 2401 Stand-Alone Coating Geometry System was developed to provide fiber manufacturers with coating geometry measurement capability in plant locations where a combined glass and coating geometry system is not required (e.g. fiber drawing area). The 2401 system includes a compact, ray traced coating geometry unit and a dedicated controller.
