History

Founded to Improve Fiber Optic Interconnect Products through Automated Manufacturing Technology

A venture capital backed company, kSARIA was founded in mid-2000 with the sole purpose of applying automation expertise to the fiber optic industry with the goal of providing fiber optic interconnect products with superior performance quality and value.  Based on its long history in the automation industry, kSARIA’s management assembled an engineering team with  in-depth experience in the development of sophisticated precision automation  equipment and  integrated it with a team of fiber optic experts to form a technology driven company that can solve the most complex fiber optic interconnect manufacturing  and field service problems.  Reaching its goal, the company has developed and deployed numerous automation platforms for fiber optic assembly manufacture within its facility, including:

  • Prima Platform – Automated system to assemble terminations to optical fiber.
  • Presta Platform – Automated system to assemble optical modules through fusion splicing.
  • Magna Platform – Automated polishing of fiber optic terminations.
  • End Shaper Platform – Automated shaping of bare fiber ends with an abrasive process.
  • Ferrule Solder Platform – Automated soldering of ferrules to fiber for hermetic sealing applications.
  • Mil/Aero Cable Assembly Platform – Automated system based on the Prima Platform to assemble terminations to heavy duty, reinforced fiber optic cable

Military and Aerospace Market Focus

kSARIA focuses on harsh environment fiber optic applications that absolutely  have to perform even under the most strenuous conditions as required in military and aerospace markets.  After an extensive study of the performance and quality issues inherent in manual and “semi-automated” fiber optic cable manufacturing processes, the US Navy and Lockheed Martin Corporation contracted with kSARIA to revolutionize the manufacturing process of harsh environment military and aeronautical fiber optic cable assemblies through kSARIA’s world leading  automated manufacturing technology.  Today, kSARIA is uniquely positioned to be the leading supplier and de-facto standard for Mil/Aero fiber optic assemblies and interconnect cable products.  The company uses its highly automated, proprietary manufacturing line to produce fiber optic interconnect products with unmatched performance, quality, consistency and value.
