Fujikura PCS-100

The PCS-100 uses a mechanical stripping method, while chemical stripping with hot Sulfuric acid or burning in a flame are the conventional method nowadays. Operation is much safer as this uses no chemicals, while the fiber reliability remains high as the glass surface is not oxidized by burning.

A razor blade is applied to a Polyimide coated fiber under some tension and moves precisely on the fiber all around to finally take Polyimide coating. Blade position / fiber rotation pitch angle, stripping length can be adjusted for various types of dimensional fibers.

Main features

• Quick stripping – Razor blade is applied to the fiber with specific tension, and the coating is precisely planed along the fiber automatically. The process takes much shorter time than any conventional methods with acid or heat.
• Safe and quality stripping – Operation is much safer as this uses no chemical acid, while the fiber quality degradation is kept small as the glass surface is not oxidized by burning.
• Flexible – A lot of parameters, such as razor blade position and stroke, fiber rotation angle are all adjustable for various size and coating material of optical fibers.
