This fiber optic fusion splicer monitors the shape of each fiber end to assess cleavage quality. If the cleave is poor due to a worn blade position, it sends a command to the fiber cleaver to rotate to the next viable blade position. The blade then automatically rotates via an internal motor. This functionality largely prevents operators from making incorrect splices due to a worn blade position. Furthermore, both the heating temperature and heating time of the ribbon fiber separator are automatically adjusted according to the fusion mode settings.
The Ribbon Fiber Stripper control is beneficial because fiber optic construction has diversified due to modern FTTH deployments, 5G base stations, and the conversion of CATV to 4K and 8K transmission. Finally, many new utility companies and contractors are entering the fiber optic and low-voltage construction industry. The 41R fusion splicer allows these companies to splice with confidence in various fiber construction environments because even novice operators can use this splicer with ease.
In addition, the 41R fusion splicer has the following features:
- Real-time arc discharge control by analyzing arc brightness intensity to help optimize splice loss.
- Universal splicer and accessories for 200 μm and 250 μm Spider Web tape jacket diameters.
- Automatic tube heater start for shrinking the protective jacket.
- Portable fusion splicer work tray inside the carrying case.
- 5” LCD monitor with touch panel.
