A Guide to Fiber Opening Machine

A fiber opening machine is also named a fiber splicer. It is an instrument used to split, align and polish the ends of two optical fibers so they can be joined together to produce a working end face according to precise optical and mechanical standards.

Fiber splicers use two kinds of fiber optic connectors. One is a mechanical splice connector such as FC, SC, ST, or LC connector. The other is an active optical fiber splice connector usually with a short length of fiber pigtails.

The splice closure consists of two or more stages: the pre-polishing stage, the optical splicing stage, the mechanical splicing stage, and the post-polishing stage. Optical fiber splice closure which fully automates these steps becomes an end face of an optical fiber fusion splicer.

The splicing machine itself can be classified as an in-line type or an off-line type. In in-line type, the process flow is from left to right, that is from the opposite ends of fibers to the duplexer in the front and out of the fusion splicer at the rear. In the off-line type, it goes from right to left, that is from the fusion splicer in the front to the opposite ends of fibers in the rear.

Uses of Fiber Opening Machine

A fiber opening machine is a piece of equipment used in fiber production and processing. They are used to straighten and prepare fibers for use in the spinning process. This machine is mostly used in the production of synthetic fibers, such as Polyester, Acrylic, and Rayon. There are several different types of machines used for the opening or straightening process. Each type of machine has different effects on the fibers, as well as different parts and functions.

The uses of the Fiber Opening Machine are numerous. The machine is used in various industrial machines and equipment. The usage of the machine varies based on the industry and purpose.

●    The machine can be used to align and expose the fibers that lie within a material called the lumen. It does this in a process called decortication or defibering. This process is done for various reasons like to separate the fibers from each other or to separate the fibers from other parts of the material.

●    The machine can also be used to separate the material from substances like water, dirt, and other impurities that may be attached to it. The machine does this by using a process called hydration.

●    The machine can also be used in different parts of textile industries such as paper industries and rayon industries. The main work carried out by the machine is the separation of materials from different parts of the industry, which carries a lot of importance in ensuring efficient working of the industry.

●    The fiber opening machine is designed in such a way that it can easily accept all types of material types. It can accept materials like glass cassettes and required liners, as well as roll materials.

●    All of these features make the machinery all-purpose machinery and help it serve different industries effectively.
