D-TECH Fiber Cleaver

Fiber Cleaver DT-20 Overview

The Fiber Cleaver DT-20 is a tool used in the field of fiber optic communications for precise cutting of optical fibers. It's designed to cleave or cut fibers cleanly and accurately, ensuring minimal loss and maintaining the integrity of the fiber ends for splicing or termination. A fiber cleaver is a specialized tool used in the field of fiber optics to precisely cut optical fibers. It's an essential instrument in tasks such as splicing fibers together or terminating them with connectors. Here's an overview of its functionality and importance:

Here are some common features and functions of the Fiber Cleaver DT-20:

• Precision Cutting: The Fiber cleaver DT-20 is engineered to cut optical fibers with high precision, typically achieving cleave angles within a specified range to ensure optimal performance in splicing or termination. Fiber cleavers are designed to make clean and precise cuts on optical fibers. This is crucial for ensuring minimal signal loss and maintaining the integrity of the fiber ends.
• Cleave Angle Control: The cleaver controls the angle at which the fiber is cut. This angle is critical for ensuring a proper splice or connection between fibers, as well as for minimizing back reflection.
• Blade Mechanism: It usually employs a blade mechanism that scores the fiber and then applies a controlled force to induce cleaving along the scored line. This process results in a clean break with minimal damage to the fiber. Most fiber cleavers use a blade mechanism to score the fiber and then induce a controlled fracture along the scored line. This results in a clean break with minimal damage to the fiber.
• Adjustable Parameters: Users can often adjust parameters such as cleave length and blade position to accommodate various types of fibers and specific project requirements. Many cleavers allow users to adjust parameters such as cleave length and blade position to accommodate different types of fibers and specific project requirements.
• Compatibility: It's compatible with various types of optical fibers commonly used in telecommunications, data networking, and other applications. Fiber cleavers are compatible with various types of optical fibers used in telecommunications, data networking, and other applications. They can handle fibers with different diameters and coatings.
• Portability: Fiber cleavers are often designed to be portable and lightweight, allowing technicians to use them in the field during installation, maintenance, and repair work.
• Maintenance: Regular maintenance is essential to ensure the cleaver's proper functioning. This includes cleaning the blade, adjusting blade positions, and replacing worn-out parts.
• Automatic Operation: Some models of fiber cleavers, including the DT-20, may offer automatic operation, where the cleaving process is initiated by pressing a button or engaging a switch. This feature enhances efficiency and consistency in fiber preparation.
• Portability and Ergonomics: The DT-20 and similar cleavers are typically designed to be compact and lightweight, facilitating ease of use in field environments. Ergonomic considerations may also be incorporated to enhance user comfort during prolonged use.
• Maintenance: Regular maintenance, such as cleaning and blade replacement, is essential to ensure consistent performance and prolong the lifespan of the cleaver.

Operations

• Put container from the storage position to the work position; pull the slider out of cleaver; open the large and smali plate.
• Set the cladding side of a striped and cleaned fiber into the corresponding fiber holder, and put it into the fixture slot. Note: the striped side of fiber should be fixed in the V-groove. Close the small plate and large plate orderly. Push slider to the other side to cut the fiber off;
• Open the large plate and small plate orderly, and take fiber out. Do not touch anywhere.

The Fiber Cleaver DT-20 and similar tools play a crucial role in the installation, maintenance, and repair of fiber optic networks by enabling precise fiber preparation for splicing, termination, and other operations.

Overall, fiber cleavers are indispensable tools for professionals working with fiber optics, as they enable precise and reliable fiber preparation, which is crucial for the performance and longevity of optical networks. Fiber Cleaver DT-20 is now available in Nepal.
