"To replace the damaged parts or create long-running, seamless way to connect a cable section, not the introduction of high signal loss fusion splicing method of choice early in the fiber, fusion splicing is a rigorous and arduous task today - although need to be careful - editing process is very simple, fully automated key steps.
Cutting the fiber end. Each weld would recommend a modern automated fiber cleaver, eliminating waste, time and hand-cut and recleaving setbacks. Again, the knife will have a specific program on the cutting end of the fiber cleaning fiber ends.Place heat-shrinkable tubing, carefully slide and fusion splicer length. Ensure that sufficient to cover the total length of clean bare fiber length.
Press the start button. Welding inspection cleavage face, align them, heat and press together. Even some splicers run automated test procedures to verify fusion splicer.Move performance in the stitching and the use of heat shrink tubing heat shrink gun down splicing area. Some of the welding machine has a full water heater, so you can complete this step, use the splicer itself.
