The new cleavers offer high precision LDF capability - applicable from 80 up to 1,250 µm diameter fibres, and can perform both flat and angled cleaves to a precision that tops anything available on the market. High precision angled cleaving functionality is provided by the CT-106 with cleaving angles of 0-15°.



“This unique and patent-pending product delivers outstanding cleaving performance and is in-line with Fujikura’s mission to produce only the highest quality equipment at the forefront of technology excellence and innovation,” Neil Bessant, Fusion Splicer division Manager of Fujikura Europe said.  “Our products are engineered with a robust set of features that offer customers technology and reliability whilst providing excellent value.”



The LDF cleavers provide advanced capabilities including extensive programmable features to ensure optimal and consistent results. Such features include: a programmable automatic clamp function, an angle cleaving function, storage for up to 100 program modes, a blade life of 20,000 cleaves with a cladding diameter of 125 µm and a colour LCD monitor. Applicable optical fibres include not only solid glass optical fibres, but also microstructured fibres and capillaries.



With the launch of the new CT-105/106, Fujikura extends solutions in LDF fibre splicing and glass processing preparation. This complimentary equipment to the Fujikura ARCMaster™Â  fusion splicers (FSM-100 series) and LAZERMaster™, CO2 laser splicer (LZM-100) continues to support customers in their fibre shaping applications.
