Another application that noticed a great advantage of using the laser cleaver is fiber bundles. As multiple large fibers and significant amount of epoxy forces the manual cleave being far from the ferrule tip, the laser cleaver will “cut” in multiple scans from multi directions the excess fiber in a single operation and provide a flat finish for automated polishing.
