Mega Industries produces Flexible Waveguide Sweeps in a wide range of waveguide sizes. We typically cover the frequency range of 0.32 GHz to 12.40 GHz, but custom solutions are readily available. Our flexible sweeps are manufactured from various materials and various flange configurations. Mega provides full design services for factory formed sweeps that assure accuracy and electrical performance.
In addition to sweeps, we offer flexguide offsets, rectangular straight sections and flex twists.
Please contact Mega Sales if you do not see the configuration your high-power microwave application requires.
