What is the Optical fiber fusion Splicer ?

Optical fiber fusion splicer is a mechanical device that physically connects two optical fiber end faces. This process will vary depending on the type of optical fiber spliced. It is mainly used for the construction, maintenance and emergency repair of optical cable lines of telecom operators, communication engineering companies and institutions, so it is also called optical cable fusion splicer.

How to Use a Fiber Fusion Splicer?

The process for using a common single-core fiber fusion splicer is generally the same. You will need the following preparation tools: optical fiber heat shrinkable tube, stripping pliers, optical fiber cleaver, dust-free paper, and alcohol.

Prepare the Optical Fiber
Strip the fiber optic cable and fix it to the fiber tray. Common optical cables include stranded, framed, and central bundled tube types. Different optical cables require different stripping methods. After stripping, fix the optical fiber to the fiber tray.

Pass the Fiber Through the Heat Shrink Tube
Pass the stripped optical fibers through the heat shrinkable tube. Separate optical fibers of different bundles and colors before passing them through the tubes.

Turn on the Splicer and Select Splicing Method
Power on the splicer and choose the appropriate splicing method. Modern fiber fusion splicers have automatic fiber recognition, allowing them to identify various types of optical fibers.

Prepare the Fiber Ends
Use a dedicated stripping tool to remove the coating from the fiber. Clean the bare fiber with high-concentration alcohol, and then use a precision fiber cleaver to cut the fiber to the required length.

Place the Fiber in the Splicer
Place the optical fiber into the V-shaped grooves of the fusion splicer. Adjust the fiber position in the pressure plate based on the fiber length, and correctly place the fiber into the windshield. Gently close the fiber pressure plate to secure the fiber.

Fusion Splicing the Fiber
Press the splice button to bring the fibers together. The fusion splicer will stop moving once the gap between the fiber ends is correct. The splicer then sets the initial gap, measures the splice, and displays the cutting angle. After the initial gap is set, the core or cladding alignment is adjusted, and the gap is reduced. The high-voltage arc generated fuses the fibers together. The microprocessor will then calculate the splice loss and display the value. If the loss is higher than expected, press the discharge button to discharge and recalculate the loss.

Reinforce the Fusion Splice
Remove the optical fiber from the splicer, open the windshield, and move the heat shrink tube to cover the fusion splice. Place the tube in the heater to shrink it. Be careful not to touch the heat shrink tube or the ceramic part of the heater during this process due to the high temperature.

Coil and Fix the Fiber
Place the connected optical fiber into the fiber receiving tray. Fix the fiber, the receiving tray, splice box, or terminal box as needed to complete the operation.

How Does A Fiber Fusion Splicer Work?

Alignment

Using small, precise motors, the fusion splicer makes minute adjustments to the fibers’ positions until they’re properly aligned, so the finished splice will be as seamless and attenuation-free as possible. During the alignment process, the fiber optic technician can view the fiber alignment, thanks to magnification by optical power meter, video camera or viewing scope.

Impurity Burn-Off

Since the slightest trace of dust or other impurities can wreak havoc on a splice’s ability to transmit optical signals, you can never be too clean when it comes to fusion splicing. Even though fibers are hand-cleaned before being inserted into the splicing device, many fusion splicers incorporate an extra precautionary cleaning step into the process. Prior to fusing, they generate a small spark between the fiber ends to burn off any remaining dust or moisture.

Fusion

After fibers have been properly positioned and any remaining moisture and dust have been burned off, it’s time to fuse the fibers ends together to form a permanent splice. The splicer emits a second, larger spark that melts the optical fiber end faces without causing the fibers’ cladding and molten glass core to run together (keeping the cladding and core separate is vital for a good splice — it minimizes optical loss). The melted fiber tips are then joined together, forming the final fusion splice. Estimated splice-loss tests are then performed, with most fiber fusion splices showing a typical optical loss of 0.1 dB or less.

Common breakdowns and troubleshooting

Breakdowns	Reasons and troubleshooting
Monitor displays: Left (Right) Fiber Not Found	Inadequate cleave length of bare fibers, or fiber end-face is too far away from the electrodes. Make fibers visible in the monitor when loading them.
Monitor displays: Splice Failed	Improper choice of splice parameters or unstable ARC. Fiber overlap is inadequate or no push when splicing. Fibers are loaded badly.
Electrodes do not perform ARC or ARC is unstable	Possible reasons: Improper setting of ARC parameter. Electrodes are too dirty or the tips are damaged. Dirty fiber surfaces. Solutions: Choose proper ARC parameter. Clean or replace the electrodes. Reprocess fibers to be spliced.
Electrodes do not perform ARC or ARC is unstable	Bad end-face. Re-prepare fiber end-face. V-groove or fibers are dirty and need clean. Reload fibers.

Q: What is a fusion splicer, and how does it work for fiber optic cable splicing?

A: A fusion splicer is a device used for joining or connecting two fiber optic cables by aligning their cores and then melting them together using an electric arc. In this method, fibers must be precisely aligned; hence, there is a need for alignment machines such as core alignment fusion splicers or cladding alignment.

Q: What are the key components of a fusion splicer kit?

A: Fusion splicer kits usually contain a fiber cleaver, carrying case, cleaning tools, visual fault locator (VFL), and protection sleeves, among others. Some advanced ones may have additional features like an optical power meter built into the fusion splicing machine or an automatic FTTH fiber optic welding machine with automatic fiber fusion splicer FTTH.

Q: How does alignment affect the quality of the fiber optic splicing?

A: A good-quality fiber optic splice requires proper alignment. Poorly aligned fibers could lead to considerable signal loss and raised reflection levels. Six-motor core alignment fiber fusion splicers are some of the tools used to ensure perfect alignment between two fibers before they are fused during the splice.

Q: What’s the difference between core alignment fiber fusion splice and clamp type splice?

A: Core Alignment Fiber Fusion Splice uses sophisticated imaging systems that allow accurate lining up of fiber cores, resulting in strong, low-loss joints. Clamp-type splices align fibers with respect to their outer claddings, which might not be very precise, thereby giving rise to high losses at the point of connection.

Q: Why do we need so many fiber protection sleeves in a typical kit when fusing?

A: During the fusion process, it is important to protect the joints against physical damage & other factors from the environment, thus necessitating the use of several numbers of materials. After finishing up all required operations around this area, a heat shrink tube should be applied over the sleeve, ensuring no part gets exposed, which can affect reliability over.

Q: What are the profits of utilizing a six-motor core alignment fiber splicer?

A: A six-motor core alignment fiber splicer offers high precision and low splice loss by adjusting the fibers in different directions using six motors. This is necessary for aligning cores with utmost accuracy so that the performance of spliced fiber optic cables can be improved to maximum levels.

Q: How does an FTTH function as an automatic fiber fusion splicer?

A: It is used in fast and accurate fiber splicing for FTTH (Fiber To The Home) networks. This is achieved by automating both alignment and fusion processes, thereby minimizing, if not eliminating, human error while ensuring reliability during massive deployments.

Q: What precautions should be taken during the optical welding splicing process?

A: During optical welding splicing, it is important to make sure that your fibre ends are clean and free from contaminants. Use a good-quality fibre cleaver to achieve a precise cut, then align them correctly through the alignment system provided by your splicer. At all times, handlers should wear safety glasses to prevent possible laser exposure to their eyes.

Q: On average, how long does it take to splice a fiber optic cable using a fusion splicer?

A: Fusing two different lengths of fibers takes about 5 – 10 minutes per splice, including preparation, cleaving, alignment, and welding with the help of a fusion splicer. However, depending on the type or model of your choice plus the operator’s experience, time may vary slightly.

Q: Can I use my fusion splicer with other types of optical fibers from different brands?

A: Yes, most current models were made versatile enough to work perfectly well across various single-mode, multi-mode, or specialty types of fibers. Just ensure you cross-check if a particular one fits the specifications required by those specific fibers before executing anything else.
