For fiber optics, clean and smooth end face is very important when splicing fiber optic cables. The fiber optic cleaver is a crucial tool for low-loss and low-reflectance fiber optic splices and terminations.
The principle of a fiber cleaver
1. Fix fibers
Open the body cover and put the striped fiber on the V-groove. Then close the holder cover.
2. Cut the knife mark on the fiber
Slip the cutting blade and leave a knife mark on the fiber
3. Cutting
