LaserStrip-1500R

LaserStrip™-1500 for the production of optical fiber components.

LaserStrip™ production tools from OpTek Systems are based on technology that has been trusted since the mid-1990s for high-volume manufacturing of performance critical optical fiber components. Engineered to address the production of both existing and a next-generation components, LaserStrip™ tabletop fiber processing tools maximize productivity in manufacturing in a compact and user-friendly platform. 

Laser stripping of optical fibers is a contact-free process used for the removal of acrylate buffers. The elimination of blades and any form of glass abrasions make this an ideal process for ultra-high reliability (UHR) applications. The LaserStrip™-1500 is configured for ribbon-fiber window-stripping with strip lengths up to 50mm and precise dimensional control. 

Fiber Compatibility: 12-Fiber 125um Ribbon Acrylate Coated (16-Fiber Ribbon solutions available)
Strip Length Range: 1-50mm
Strip Length Tolerance: ± 0.2mm
Shoulder Transitions: < 500μm
