time2011/09/28

In the initial fiber fusion splicer is a rigorous and arduous task. Today - although the need for caution - editing process is very simple, fully automated key steps.
Strip cable jacket at both ends. This includes aramid fiber strength and inner coating. Fusion splicer instructions will tell you how far back area, and fiber stripper, will detail how to place and pull the fiber.
Cutting the fiber end. Every modern fiber welding machine will have a recommended automatic fiber cleaver, eliminating waste, time and hand-cut and recleaving associated with frustration. Again, the knife will have a specific procedure to place clean fiber end. Place heat shrink tubing, cut one end of the fiber sliding and fiber length carefully. Ensure adequate coverage of the total length of bare fiber cleaning length. Welding the two fiber ends.
Open the welding machine and verify that you are using the set of fiber fuse type. Necessary to select the appropriate program. Welding current melting of the fiber, as well as the correct current size, needs to be done will vary, the fiber size and material may be. Press the start button.
Mobile welding heat shrink tubing, and then use the heat gun to fight off an area of ??atrophy. Some welding machines have a complete water heater, so you can complete this step, with the fusion splicer itself.
