Gap
position
Set the relative position of the splicing location to the center of
electrodes. Splice loss may be improved in the case of dissimilar
ber splicing by shifting [Gap position] towards a ber whose MFD
is bigger than the other ber MFD.
Gap
Set the end-face gap between the left and right bers at the time
of aligning and pre-fusion discharge.
parameter description
Overlape
Set the overlap amount of bers at the ber propelling stage.
Relatively small [Overlap] is recommended if [Preheat Arc Value] is
low, while relatively large [Overlap] is recommended if [Preheat Arc
Value] is high.
Cleaning
Arc time
A cleaning arc burns out micro dust on the surface of the ber
with an arc discharge for a short period of time. The duration of
the cleaning arc can be changed by this parameter.
Preheat
Arc value
Set the pre-fuse arc power from the beginning of arc discharging
to the beginning of bers propelling. If “Preheat Arc Value” is set
too low, axial oset may occur if cleaved angles are relatively poor.
If “Preheat Arc Value” is set too high, ber end faces are fused
excessively and splice loss gets worse.
Preheat
Arc time
Set the pre-fuse arc time from the beginning of arc discharging
to the beginning of bers propelling. Long [Preheat Arc Time] and
high [Preheat Arc Value] lead to the same results.
Fuse Arc
value
Set Arc power.
Fuse Arc
time
Set Arc time.
