Flexible Microwave Waveguides

Flexible microwave waveguides are manufactured through electrodeposition for high performance applications.  An electroform is manufactured by machining an aluminum mandrel, depositing metal onto the mandrel, and finally chemically removing the aluminum.  Because the internal geometry of the microwave waveguide is controlled by the external machining tolerances and the internal geometry is most critical in this product, Servometer delivers.Flexible Waveguide Collage showing various shapes, materials and flexibility.Mechanically formed waveguides are typically rigid structures, making installation more difficult.  Servometer waveguides are capable of a wide range of movement due to wall thickness and material selection.  Their shape is similar to a bellows and can be manufactured as a round or rectangular structure.  Miniature sizes are common ground for Servometer, as components can be made less than half a millimeter in diameter.

Servometer can manufacture a component from various materials including nickel, copper, gold, silver or a combination thereof.  These materials work extremely well in cryogenic temperatures.  Special finishes can be added to these materials as well.  Servometer can integrate custom hardware into the waveguide by soldering or electron-beam welding directly to the component.
