Machine has vivid image-forming system and precision image processing technology for fiber alignment for ultra low splicing loss during fiber maintenance and installation network operations.

What is the most widely used method of splicing fiber optic cables?

The most common method of splicing fibers together is fusion splicing, which permanently fuses fibers together using an electric arc. This method is far more popular than mechanical splicing because it provides the lowest loss, less reflectance and the strongest joint between the fibers.

How do I choose a fusion splicer?

Fiber alignment is a key consideration when choosing a fusion splicer. Precision fiber alignment must be achieved in order to obtain a quality splice. Precision alignment is especially important when splicing singlemode fiber, which has a small core diameter.

What is fast fusion splicer?

What is Fujikura splicing machine?

Fujikura Single Fiber Fusion Splicing Machine, Fujikura-80C Product description: The Fujikura 80C is a fully ruggedized, core alignment fusion splicer, providing consistent, low loss, splice performance.

What is V groove splicing?

A fixed V-groove splicer uses an electric arc fired between two electrodes orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of two fibers to melt their ends and fuse them together. Our Arc Test utility optimizes the arc power & the position of the fiber ends relative to the arc center.

What is fiber splicing machine?

A fiber optic fusion splicer is a device that uses an electric arc to melt two optical fibers together at their end faces, to form a single long fiber.

How much does fusion splicing cost?

At $60-120/hr, a fusion splice in a drop location will cost $30-$60 labor plus the splicing cost. A mechanical splice would also require cable prep time, plus the $5 – $12 connector price. Even less expensive than that is using pre-terminated fiber cable.

What are some prerequisites before performing a fusion splice of optical fibers?

What are some prerequisites before performing a fusion splice of optical fibers? A controlled environment such as a splicing van, trailer, or tent and a stable work surface that is large enough to accommodate the fusion splicer, tools , and the splice closure.

How is fiber spliced?

Simply put, fiber optic splicing involves joining two fiber optic cables together. The other, more common, method of joining fibers is called termination or connectorization. Splicing is also used to restore fiber optic cables when a buried cable is accidentally severed.
