Loading... Please wait...The MiniCoater restores the primary coating on spliced optical fibers with acrylate coatings. The fiber is automatically centered when it is inserted into the mold. Due to the mold design, the restored part of the coating retains almost the same diameter as the original coating.
To facilitate the insertion of the fiber and the recoating resin, the mold can be opened with the aid of a lever. The resin is cured through the walls of the transparent mold. The typical curing time is 15 to 60 seconds depending on the type of resin and the length of the recoated part. molds for various sizes of coating diameters are available with custom sizes manufactured on request. Typically used for 30 to 80 recoatings (depending on the type of acrylate used and handling), the MiniCoater's mold can be exhanged in seconds with no need for realignment.
The MiniCoater also comes standard with a manual tensile strength tester used for forces up to 10N. The fiber is placed around the capstans and pulled by the operator until the LED is switched off.
