Fusion Splicing Solutions

Welcome to state-of-the-art fiber optic specialty fusion splicing solutions from FITEL and 3SAE. Our technology sets the standard in the fiber optic industry, providing compact specialty fusion splicers and advanced glass processing systems for optical component manufacturing and high-power fiber laser applications. As the sole authorized FITEL specialty fusion splicer distributor in North America, 3SAE Technologies delivers unparalleled product quality and exceptional service. 

FITEL FUSION SPLICERS

FITEL’s extensive range of compact specialty fusion splicers combines portability and reliability. These devices are designed for various applications, including core alignment splicing, active xyz cladding alignment, fixed v-groove cladding alignment, and mass (ribbon) fusion splicing for up to 12-fiber counts.

Our FITEL S185 specialty fusion splicers cater to unique optical fiber and large diameter fiber fusion splicing needs, with the capacity to splice optical fibers with cladding diameters ranging from 80µm to 800mm. 


We offer a variety of models in our FITEL 2-electrode series, including: 

  • S185HS (High Strength)
  • S185LD (Large Diameter)
  • S185PM (Polarization Maintaining)
  • S185PMLD (Polarization Maintaining Large Diameter)
  • S185EDV (End-View)

These models support optical fibers with diameters ranging from 80µm to 500µm. Our S179 and S154 models are compatible with fibers ranging from 80µm to 150µm. For ribbon fiber fusion splicing, we recommend the Fitel S124X and S124M12-80 models, which can manage ribbon splicing for 125µm and 80µm fiber, respectively.


Explore our FITEL S185 3-electrode series, which incorporates the innovative Ring of Fire® technology. This series includes:

  • S185ROF (Ring of Fire®)
  • S185PMROF (Polarization Maintaining Ring of Fire®)

These models are suitable for optical fibers ranging from 125µm to 800µm in diameter.

We take pride in our collaboration with Furukawa Electric Company and 3SAE technologies, integrating the patented 3-Phase Ring of Fire® Wide Area Plasma™ technology from 3SAE into our FITEL S185ROF fusion splicer product line.


3SAE FUSION SPLICERS

When it comes to high-performance specialty fusion splicing applications, 3SAE’s PentaPod® Fusion Splicer (PFS) stands at the forefront, delivering industry-leading results. 

Our patented PentaPod® multi-axis alignment stage ensures optimal fiber alignment and fusion splicing with its automatic XYZ, pitch/yaw alignment on both the left and right stages. This is particularly effective for angle-critical applications.

Further enhancing the efficiency of the PFS fusion splicer is the inclusion of 3SAE’s third-generation Ring of Fire® technology. This revolutionary feature takes the fusion splicer’s capabilities to new heights.

The PFS fusion splicer is an excellent solution for a variety of demanding tasks, including end-cap splicing and fiber bundle output splicing. It is also ideal for angle-critical fusion splicing in high-powered fiber laser systems, showcasing its versatility and adaptability.
