Custom workholding for fiber array polishing.

Shown here are multiple fiber array units secured in a custom Krell Technologies workholder during the polishing process, along with a closer look at a polished fiber array.

Designed around the component and application, custom workholding helps provide the support and positioning needed throughout processing.
