The AFL / Fujikura FSM-60R12 Ribbon Fusion Splicer offers unmatched versatility and reliability. The new ribbon splicer withstands a drop test of up to 30" and continues to splice. And enhanced, robust features enable the FSM-60R12 to resist shock, dust, and rain so that unfortunate environmental conditions do not negatively impact productivity.
Equipped with a user-friendly interface and precision fixed V-groove, the AFL / Fujikura FSM-60R12 Ribbon Fusion Splicer offers 2 to 12 fiber ribbon splicing, as well as, single fiber splicing capability. Automated features such as auto-start splicing, auto-start tube heater operation, automatic ribbon fiber identification, and auto-arc calibration reduce operational steps and improve splicing performance. Additional improvements include automatic image orientation when switching the dual position monitor, a large capacity battery option and the ability to charge the battery during splicer operation.
New software included provides the ability to download splice data to a PC for splice data reporting, download splicer operating software via the internet to maintain peak performance, and download video images from the splicer to enhance technical support.
