FRANKLIN, Tenn., - 3SAE Technologies will be bringing Furukawa Electric Co. Ltd’s compact fusion splicing equipment for specialty fibers to the North American market. Its FITEL S185 series provides high precision and low splice loss for specialty fiber splicing.
The FITEL S185 series also significantly reduces the length of fiber needed under the windshield and delivers more precise operation for today’s compact optical assemblies, fiber lasers and optical sensors.
The high-capacity battery option provides additional portability and WiFi-enabled operation allows for faster and easier operational control.
The FITEL S185HS and S185PM units are designed specifically for High Strength and Polarization Maintaining fibers ranging from 80µm to 150µm.
The FITEL S185LDF and S185PMLDF are designed to handle Large Diameter Fibers and PMLDF ranging from 80µm up to 500µm. They are ideal for manufacturing, research and other specialty fiber splicing applications.
