Large Diameter Optical Fiber Cleaver CT-104

The CT50 offers enhanced drop impact resistance compared to other existing cleavers and allows workers to replace the cleaving blade, providing customers with a drastic reduction in handling time and maintenance costs. The CT50 changes the position of the cleaving blade automatically and in accordance with the condition of the cleaving state of optical fibers on a fusion splicer through wireless communication. In addition,the CT50 can complete cleaving works including scrap collection, with a single-step.

AFL’s PowerCleave combines the precision of an ultrasonic cleaver with the ease and improved fiber management of the Fujikura fiber holder system. The PowerCleave™ utilizes the tensile stress method to avoid touching or damaging the bare glass surface during cleaving, ensuring highly robust, reliable and durable splice results. The PowerCleave provides consistent flat ends even at cleave lengths as short as 3 mm. Specially designed for use with Fujikura’s specialty market splicers, this advanced cleaving system allows for more reliability and greater splicing consistency with less dependence on operator technique.

The CleaveMeterTM interferometer system is designed for inspecting the surface quality, flatness and perpendicularity of cleaved and polished optical fibers. Complementing the NYFORS AutoCleaverTM line of automatic fiber cleavers with process documentation and optimization functionality, it allows every cleave to be individually inspected and evaluated even in high volume production environments.

Nyfors Product. The AutoCleaver LDF™ (Fujikura edition) is a high precision fiber cleaver, designed for cleaving of large diameter fiber (LDF). It provides outstanding cleaving performance for large diameter fibers from 230 μm up to 1000 μm in diameter. The unique and patent pending cleaving process generates typical cleave angles of less than 0.5 degrees.
