Welders

What is a fibre optic welder? 

A splicer is a device used to permanently splice optical fibres together. The process, known as splicing, involves precisely aligning and fusing the ends of the fibre to ensure minimal signal loss and high connection strength. Fibre optic splicers are a key tool in the construction and maintenance of telecommunications networks and other systems using fibre optic technology. 

Types of fibre optic welders: 

  • Single arc welding machines - basic fibre optic welding equipment, ideal for simple and less demanding applications. They tend to be more cost-effective and easy to operate. 
  • Double-arc welders - offer a faster welding process and higher precision, making them the ideal choice for professionals who require reliability and speed in their daily work. 
  • Welders with automatic core alignment function - These advanced welders are equipped with automatic core alignment technology to ensure maximum accuracy and minimal signal loss. They are ideal for applications requiring the highest quality connections. 

How do I choose the right fibre optic welder? 

Choosing the right welding machine depends on several key factors: 

  1. Application 

First of all, consider what tasks you will be using the welder for. If you need a machine for regular, professional use, choose a model with higher precision and speed. For example, Extralink TCV-605C Fibre Optic Welder is ideal for professionals requiring reliability and accuracy. 

  1. Budget 

Your financial capabilities also play a role in your choice of welder. If you're on a tight budget but don't want to sacrifice quality, consider Extralink AI-9 Fibre optic splicer which offers excellent value for money.
