To complement the line of world class splicing systems, AFL's PowerCleave® combines the precision of an ultrasonic cleaver with the ease and improved fiber management of the Fujikura fiber holder system.
AFL New PowerCleave High Strength Cleaver.
To complement the line of world class splicing systems, AFL Telecommunications' PowerCleave™ high-strength cleaver combines the precision of an ultrasonic cleaver with the ease and improved fiber management of the Fujikura fiber holder system. The PowerCleave's tensile cleaving method includes a tension clamping system and a diamond-tipped ultrasonic blade, allowing for consistently flat ends even at cleave lengths as short as 3mm. Specially designed for the FSM-40F/PM fiber holders, this advanced fiber management system allows for more reliability and greater splicing consistency with less dependence on operator technique.
Features
- Tensile cleaving with ultrasonic blade
- Consistent, low-angle cleaves of short cleave-length fibers
- Fiber holder system increases splicing results by reducing skill dependency
- Fiber holder system reduces fiber handling
- Clean, reliable quality
