Improved accuracy on fiber end-face inspection with the CLEAVEMETER 3D+
NYFORS TEKNOLOGI AB (publ) has developed a new CLEAVEMETER, which significantly improves the accuracy of the measured fiber end face. The CLEAVEMETER 3D+ takes several measurements of the angle thereby significantly increasing the accuracy to 0.02°.
By upgrading the software and hardware of our current CLEAVEMETER 3D, we have managed to significantly improve the accuracy of the measured angle of the fiber end-face. The device can extract an angle with standard deviation less than 0.02° in less than 1 minute. Even higher accuracies can be attained by taking more measurements. The device is compatible with fiber clamps from Fujikura and other splicer manufacturers, which make fiber handling quick and simple. It also comes with a substantial software upgrade that allows for more statistical analysis of any cleave.
Highly accurate cleaves are very important for sensitive splicing and sensor technologies. The CLEAVEMETER 3D+ allows for an unprecedented accuracy in the final angle measurement of a cleave, which can increase the yield and production speed for demanding applications.
The CLEAVEMETER 3D+ will be further presented at Photonics West 2017, January 31st – February 2nd at the Moscone Center, San Francisco, CA.
