Microwave Techniques - Waveguide Miter Bends

Waveguide Miter Bends

Microwave Techniques manufactures waveguide miter bends in E-Plane and H-Plane configurations. These units are minimum in size and provide superior electrical performance over a restricted bandwidth. In addition to our standard offering, we have custom waveguide miter bend designs to meet your unique high-power RF or microwave application environment.

Microwave Techniques can fabricate alignment pins, grooved flanges, and various aspect ratios to meet your feed high-power waveguide system requirements.

Waveguide miter bends are also available for both high pressure and high vacuum applications.

Angles other than 90 degrees can be readily supplied to minimize system design costs.

An overview of our manufacturing capabilities with waveguide miter bends includes:

E-Plane and H-Plane bend configurations
A variety of waveguide sizes from WR284 to WR2300
Ability to incorporate cooling mediums or other infrastructure
Custom, half or reduced height options for flanges and interface

If you do not see the waveguide miter bend you require, contact sales@microwavetech.com to discuss your exact product requirements with a technical sales engineer.

¹ 30,000 V/cm Breakdown Voltage Unpressurized Waveguide 1:00:1 VSWR Average power is based upon unpressurized painted aluminum waveguide, internal surface finish of 63µm, under free convective cooling with an operating temperature that is 25oC above ambient temperature. Cooling options should be considered if the waveguide will be operating at higher average power levels - please consult factory.
