The founders and team members of TTI have a wealth of experience in the Photonics and Fiber Optics test and measurement industry dating back to the early 1970s when fiber was still in its infancy. After many years of ingenuity and dedication, we founded TTI in 1989 with the purpose of continuing to delight our customers, assist them in finding the best solutions, and keeping abreast of the technologies they deploy. Our roots may be in the Mohawk Valley Fiber Optic Industry of central New York, but our reach is global, and we pride ourselves in being a world class producer of the high tech solutions our customers require.
Our technology and product development experiences include design and marketing the world's first commercial processor driven Optical Time Domain Reflectometer. Other historic developments include Radiometric Energy and Power Meters, Optical Choppers, Space Probe Mission Sensors, and the industry standard Electrically Calibrated Pyroelectric Radiometer.
Over the decades we continued developing and refining our technologies with recent introductions in our full line of fiber optic test equipment including state of the art Optical Time Domain Reflectometers, hand held Optical Spectrum Analyzers, CWDM Channel Analyzers, Tunable Laser Sources and advanced autotest/autowave Loss Test Sets.
We also have a full line of optical to electrical converters, fiber optic links and a fiber optic video link system. We offer an optical chopper, laser power and energy meter, a fiber optic laser tachometer, photodiode transimpedance amplifier, and various other custom opto-electronic products that are utilized in the automotive, fiber optics, communications, photonics, power generation and medical equipment industries and for research laboratories, government entities and educational organizations worldwide.
Through our experiences the principle engineers at TTI are proud to have amassed over 100 years of combined experience in photonics and fiber optic instrumentation. We also are extremely proud to be one of the few USA developers and manufacturers of OTDRs and high tech photonics equipment, and look forward to maintaining this commitment.
In closing, we'd like to assure you that we are totally committed to our mission of providing leading world class quality solutions for our colleagues and friends. We maintain a passion for investments in our equipment designs, and development of exceptional customer relations through cooperation and training.

Tornado Spectral Systems designs, manufactures, and sells dispersive optical spectrometers and systems primarily for Raman spectroscopy and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). Raman spectroscopy is a powerful analytical technique but Raman systems have traditionally been limited by a lack of sensitivity due to the input slit trade-off between resolution and throughput. Tornado’s proprietary high throughput virtual slit (HTVS™) design technique eliminates spectrometer slit losses while maintaining high spectral resolution, resulting in an order of magnitude improvement in sensitivity. Tornado's HyperFlux™ HTVS-enabled spectrometers and spectroscopy systems are the perfect solutions for lab and process Raman as well as many other spectroscopy applications. With higher sensitivity than ever before possible, they provide faster measurement for dynamic reactions and transient features, more accurate chemical identification and quantitation even with challenging mixtures and low concentrations, and low laser power operation in hazardous environments. Tornado's knowledge and expertise in dispersive spectroscopy has also been applied to SD-OCT, for which a spectrometer is a key component of the instrumentation. OCT-Prime is a small, robust, and high-performance solution ideally suited for ophthalmic imaging and other medical and industrial measurement applications. Discover how Tornado’s spectroscopy solutions can improve your quality, efficiency, and economics!
