Optivision optical fiber cleaver is a precision tool used to cut (cleave) optical fibers with a smooth, flat, and perpendicular end face. Proper cleaving is essential for achieving low-loss splicing and high-quality fiber connections in optical fiber products and networks.

Purpose

• To prepare fiber ends before fusion splicing, mechanical splicing, or connectorization

• To ensure accurate fiber alignment and minimal signal loss

Working Principle

The cleaver uses a diamond or tungsten carbide blade to make a small, controlled score on the fiber surface. The fiber is then gently bent, causing it to break cleanly along the score line at nearly a 90° angle.

Key Features

 

• High cleave angle accuracy (typically ≤ 0.5°)

• Adjustable blade position for long blade life

• Built-in fiber holder for precise alignment

• Suitable for single-mode and multimode fibers

Applications

• Fusion splicing of optical fibers

• Mechanical splicing

• Fiber optic connector termination

• Optical fiber manufacturing and testing

Advantages

• Produces smooth, clean fiber end faces

• Reduces splice loss and back reflection

• Simple, fast, and reliable operation

Optivision Stainless Steel Optical Fiber Stripper

Optivision stainless steel optical fiber stripper is a precision hand tool used to remove protective coatings and buffer layers from optical fibers without damaging the glass core. It is an essential tool for fiber preparation before splicing, termination, and testing.

Purpose

 

• To strip outer jacket, buffer, and coating layers of optical fibers

• To expose the bare fiber core for cleaving and splicing

Construction and Material

• Made from high-quality stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance

• Features precision-machined stripping holes for different fiber sizes

• Spring-loaded handles provide smooth and controlled operation

Working Principle

The stripper uses accurately sized blades to grip and cut only the fiber coating. When pressure is applied and the tool is pulled along the fiber, the coating is cleanly removed while leaving the glass fiber intact.

Common Stripping Sizes

 

• 250 µm coating → 125 µm fiber

• 900 µm buffer

• Some models also support 2–3 mm jacket stripping

Applications

• Fusion splicing and mechanical splicing

• Fiber optic connector termination

• Optical fiber cable installation and maintenance

• Laboratory and field fiber preparation

Advantages

• High precision and repeatability

• Long service life due to stainless steel body

• Minimizes risk of fiber breakage

• Comfortable grip for repeated use
