Summary Advanced Manufacturing for Optical Fibers and Integrated Photonic Devices explores the theoretical principles and industrial practices of high-technology manufacturing. Focusing on fiber optic, semiconductor, and laser products, this book: Explains the fundamentals of standard, high-tech, rapid, and additive manufacturing workshops. Examines the production lines, processes, and clean rooms needed for the manufacturing of products. Discusses the high-technology manufacturing and installation of fiber optic cables, connectors, and active/passive devices. Describes continuous improvement, waste reduction through 5S application, and management's responsibilities in supporting production. Covers Lean Manufacturing processes, product improvement, and workplace safety, as well as internal/external and ISO auditing. Offers a step-by-step approach complete with numerous figures and tables, detailed references, and a glossary of terms. Employs the international system of units (SI) throughout the text. Advanced Manufacturing for Optical Fibers and Integrated Photonic Devices presents the latest manufacturing achievements and their applications in the high-tech sector. Inspired by the author's extensive industrial experience, the book provides a comprehensive overview of contemporary manufacturing technologies
