Specialty Fiber Fusion Splicers, PM alignment,

Fujikura's new specialty splicers FSM-100M+ and FSM-100P+ are able to splice various type of specialty fibers, such as photonic crystal fibers (PCF), holey structured fibers and X-LDF (Extra Large Diameter Fibers) up to 1200 micron clad diameter thanks to patented 'Split V-groove' fiber clamping system. FSM-100P+ can align polarization maintaining (PM) fibers using interrealtion profile alignment (IPA) and End view systems.

- Patented "Split V-groove" clamping system
- Optimum "Plasma Zone" fiber positioning for specialty fiber
- Short cleave length (3mm) capability
- Special arc calibration function for large diameter fiber application
- Dual splice loss estimation methods analyzing warm splice image (WSI) and cold splice image (CSI)
- Enhanced sweep arc, maximum 5mm
- Internet firmware update capability
- Production environment friendly design
- Zero degree fiber holder position for splicing LDF
- Fiber profile learning function
- Dual PM alignment method (FSM-100P only)
