Precise cleaving is required for photonic splicing applications as the types of optical fibre become more diversified to meet new applications. In addition, angled cleaving is often required for low back-reflection fibre end preparation. The CT101 and CT102 have been developed to offer adjustability and versatility for these various fibre types and applications while offering superior tension cleaving performance beyond conventional cleavers that utilize a scribe and bend cleaving method. The CT101 and CT102 are equipped with a motorized diamond blade that touches the fibre after tension has been applied providing high-strength cleaving capability. The CT101 is designed to accommodate the Fujikura FH-100 fibre holders while the CT102 has been designed to accommodate the FH-60 fibre holders.
