NYFORS releases AutoCleaver LDF in FITEL edition
Press information 20 July 2010
NYFORS introduces the AutoCleaver LDF™ fiber cleaver in a special FITEL edition, designed to be used with FITEL S183 and S184 series fusion splicers. Based on our proven and patented cleaving technology, this automated precision fiber cleaver produces consistent cleaves with mirror quality end-face finish on large diameter fibers from 230 μm up to 1000 μm in diameter.
In the FITEL edition it is now fully compatible with the FITEL S183-PM, S183-K, S183-PMII and S184-PM fusion splicers. Since the cleaver accepts standard FITEL S710S fiber holders, the cleaved fiber can be directly transferred to the splicer with no risk of touching or damaging the fiber end, making the fiber preparation process both easier and more efficient.
For smaller fiber dimensions FITEL fusion splicers can be used with the NYFORS standard AutoCleaver™.
NYFORS fiber cleavers AutoCleaver and AutoCleaver LDF are also compatible with Ericsson and Fujikura fusion splicers. Fiber holders for other fusion splicers are available upon request.

NYFORS new member of Acreo Fiber Optic Center
Acreo Fiber Optic Center is an industry-institute-academia competence center with a focus on fiber optic technologies, funded by the The Swedish Governmental Agency for Innovation Systems (VINNOVA), The Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research (SSF) and The Knowledge Foundation (KKS).
The Fiber Optic Center gathers five academic and nineteen industrial partners, among them the Royal Swedish Insititute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm, Ericsson Network Technologies and SAAB Avitronics, covering applications in telecommunications, medical technologies, building and construction, sensing, and industrial applications.
The research program focuses on development of novel fiber optic technologies, such as specialty fibers, and demonstrating new principles using fiber optics, such as nano-second switching, microfluidics in hole fibers or efficient temperature sensing.
The technologies from the research program are further enhanced in the applied program where the development projects directly aim at industrial value and growth. Examples of applied projects are fiber based sensor systems for industrial applications, fiber lasers, and fiber optic radar applications.

NYFORS releases improved interferometer
Press information 19 February 2010
Nyfors Teknologi AB releases improved interferometer for the inspection of standard and large diameter fibers
Nyfors introduces an improved cleave meter, the CleaveMeter MP1™, that simplifies and increases the precision in end face inspection of optical fiber with cladding diameters from 125 to 1200 µm. Thus enabling quick and easy sampling tests and continuous documentation.
Based on the proven technology from previous NYFORS cleave meters, this non-contact (Michelson) interferometer introduces several improved features which enhance the precision and simplify the process of fiber end face examination, thus making this cleave meter the ideal instrument for cleaver inspection and optimization.
The CleaveMeter MP1™ gives immediate and accurate information about important end face properties such as flatness, perpendicularity, hackles and dust. In addition, the software has several other new features, such as automatic cleaving angle measurement, user defined markers at points of interest, pseudo-color mode for better contrast and in-picture measurement results. By means of the host application, the user can view the live camera image, adjust camera settings, save and load images to/from file, and log all information in a specific text-based log file.
The optical system is based on a high-end CMOS camera with 1.3 megapixel (1280 x 1024) true resolution and very high sensitivity, yielding excellent image quality at high frame rates and high magnification.
The mechanical design is compatible with all NYFORS automatic fiber cleavers, and accepts the fiber holders used in those machines. For other types of holders, custom-made adaptors are available upon request. The CleaveMeter MP1™ is delivered in a small bench top design.

NYFORS introduces an angle cleaver
Press information 19 February 2010
Nyfors Teknologi AB introduces an angle cleaving option for the AutoCleaver LDF™
The AutoCleaver LDF™ can now be equipped and delivered with an angle cleaving option allowing accurate variable cleaving angles of 15 degrees.
Designed around a rotating clamp, the easy to use Angle Cleaving Option™ produces accurately angled cleaves of 15 degrees with very low deviations from the desired angle. Because of the clamp design, the scrap piece is only 19 mm − the same length as with the original AutoCleaver LDF™.
It is also possible to mount the angle cleaving option as an add on to existing cleavers.
