About Faseroptik Henning
Faseroptik Henning GmbH is a family-run company based in Allersberg, about 30 km south of Nuremberg. Since its founding in 1975 by Wolfram Henning, the company has specialized in the production of fiber optic and light waveguide products. The range of services includes fiber optic light sources (LED, Halogen, Arc), light conductors and fiber optic cables, sensor arrays and optical sensors for measurement and control technology, as well as optical assemblies for medicine, endoscopy, and laboratories. In the business areas LUMOLUX, SENSOLUX, MEDILUX, and TRAFFICLUX, the company serves industries such as industrial image processing, medical technology, printing presses, breweries, biogas plants, sewage treatment plants, foundries, and traffic safety. Additionally, Faseroptik Henning offers CNC turning and milling, PMMA lens and prism manufacturing, Rapid PCB Prototyping, software development, 3D printing, powder coating, as well as the development of BF2/BF3/BF4 support vehicles and mobile variable traffic signs. From consulting and feasibility studies and prototypes to pilot and mass production, the company handles development and production in-house.
