Glass processing and tapering
NYFORS offers fusion splicing and glass processing solutions utilizing clean and contamination free CO₂ laser heating. The SMARTSPLICER™ is a versatile product platform designed for the manufacturing of high power and sensitive photonics components.
Automatic fiber cleaving
The AUTOCLEAVER series is a comprehensive product platform with various models for cleaving standard and LD optical fibers, all based on our proven and patented tension and scribe cleaving process. Different models are carefully optimized for precision cleaving of standard, specialty and large diameter fibers with cladding diameters between 80 and 1000 micrometer. A common feature is the automated cleaving process intended to provide consistent results and high production yield in volume manufacturing environments. Low maintenance requirements ensure trouble-free operation during long periods of operation. Open interface for integration into automated production systems. Fiber holder solutions are available for use with fusion splicers from Fujikura, Furukawa/FITEL and Vytran. Dual fiber holder positions for comfortable use with FSM-100 fusion splicers.
Optical fiber recoating
NYFORS produces fast and advanced recoaters for different high and low index recoating applications. A common feature of all models is the flexibility with easy change of recoating material and fiber coating dimension. Silicone moulds are available for coating sizes between 80 and 900 micrometer with custom sizes available (also for coating sizes above 900 micrometer). Recoating lengths between 34 and 100 mm.

Optical fiber proof testing
Automatic equipment for production verification and breaking strength testing of optical fibers. Linear and mandrel strength testing functionality.
Cleave quality inspection
High precision interferometers for checking the end face quality of cleaved optical fibers and for cleave process optimization. Crisp and clear fringe patterns and software with advanced measurement functionality. Ideal for use in production settings and when working with difficult to cleave fibers in laboratory environments. Fiber holder adaptors available for use with cleavers and splicers from the major splicer manufacturers. This facilitates easy transfer of the fiber from cleaver to interferometer and then onto the splicer with no need for reclamping.
Automatic fiber preparation
Stripping and fiber preparation systems that removes acrylate coatings and eliminates fiber residue with preserved fiber strength and integrity through a completely automatic process.
