POMFRET, CT, September 2, 2010 - Fiberoptics Technology Inc. (FTI) announces the addition of Rapid
Medical Light Guide Prototyping Service (MPS)
This new group, which includes FTI’s most experienced staff members, focuses exclusively on the design
and production of OEM medical components, and offers medical OEMs a new, extremely fast design and
build service for small quantities of modified “standard” designs at reasonable cost.
FTI is able to provide this service not only because of a vast inventory of stocked sheathing and medical
end tips, but also because the company maintains a 24 person in-house machining department, with stateof-
the-art CNC equipment and in-house laser engraving capabilities.
“FTI has always been dedicated to customer service and satisfaction. Now, instead of telling one customer
at a time, we realized we could be more effective by formalizing a process which could be presented to the
entire marketplace at once.” said Steve Giamundo, the company’s President.
In trial runs for typical design/build inquiries, the response time from first contact to price quotation has
been 24 hrs, with standard prototype assemblies shipping within 5 days. While the service is extremely
fast, there is no cost premium. The process design moves prototype construction through normal
production resources, so the transition from prototype to serial production is simple, cost effective, and
timely.
“We believe FTI has a strategic advantage in the marketplace which cannot be duplicated; our workforce is
very long tenured and experienced in the practical application of fiber optic assembly and design. This
single attribute serves as the major point of differentiation to separate FTI from its competitors, and allows
the company to institute a program like MPS without disruption in the daily production schedule”, said Tim
Beeman, the company’s Sales Manager responsible for Medical product sales.
