Optical fiber cutting device electro base MD-20

The electro base MD-20 is an optical fiber cutting device designed for precise cleaving of fiber ends. Intended for use in fiber optic installation and maintenance, it provides a controlled cutting process to prepare fibers for splicing or connectorization. The compact tool suits both field and workshop use, delivering consistent, repeatable cuts that reduce preparation time and help achieve reliable joint quality.

Advantages

The device offers accurate, reproducible cleaves with minimal operator variation, supporting single-mode and multimode fiber preparation. Its compact design makes it convenient for technicians working on-site or in confined bench spaces. The mechanism reduces the risk of irregular end faces and contamination during the cutting process, contributing to faster splicing and lower rework rates.

Key specifications

• Purpose: precise cleaving of optical fiber ends for splicing and connectorization
• Compatibility: suitable for single-mode and multimode optical fibers
• Form factor: compact, portable design for field and bench use
• Operation: mechanical cleavage mechanism optimized for repeatability
• Result: consistent end-face quality to reduce rework and improve splice success

How to use

Strip the fiber coating and clean the bare glass with appropriate solvents before placing the fiber into the cutting device. Align the fiber according to the device's guide, apply the specified tension or positioning, and activate the cleaving action following the manufacturer's handling instructions. After cleaving, inspect the end face under a microscope or inspection probe to confirm a proper cleave before proceeding to splicing or connector termination.

Usage recommendations

Use clean tools and lint-free wipes when preparing fibers; perform routine inspection of the cutting edge and replace or service components according to service intervals to maintain cleave quality. For best results, follow standard fiber handling practices, including proper stripping lengths, cleaning procedures, and visual inspection of the cleaved end faces prior to splicing or connectorization.
