Fibertool Beta is a four-motor fusion splicer for splicing single optical fibers with a diameter of 125 microns.
The device is equipped with universal clamps that allow splicing fibers in a usual coating of 250 microns and 900 microns, as well as patch cords with a diameter of 2 mm and 3 mm and, moreover, fibers in a loose coating of 900 microns (splitters, etc.).
The number of software functions is kept to a minimum. The setting is done manually. The USB port is for service use only.
The battery of the Fibertool Beta is built-in, not removable, and can only be charged inside the splicer itself. The battery capacity is 5200 mAh.
The optical system has mirrors. It should be noted that the protected and durable mirrors of the optical system are not a weakness, they are a design feature.
The device does not have equipment for Splice-On connectors, nor does it have detachable clamps. The heater is equipped with an auto-start sensor.
The cleaver does not have an automatic trash bin, only a container. You cannot attach an automatic shard collector. Fragments are removed manually by an operator. The height of the blade is adjusted by a Fiber cleaver cam. The rotation of the blade to a new position and the height adjustment are separated, which makes it easier to set up the tool. While the cleaver blade is unique, an undeniable advantage is that the rubber clips are standard for easy replacement.
With the Fibertool Beta, the fiber image is more detailed than with classic four-motor fusion splicers with fixed microscopes. The core of the fibers is distinguishable and allows you to evaluate splicing quality "by eye".
-
Central fiber alignment unit is self-designed
-
Fibertool Beta is a device with automatic fiber diameter alignment. Four motors feed and align fibers to eliminate axial misalignment prior to splicing. The device can be used not only in subscriber networks, but also in public networks.
-
The fiber image is detailed enough for visual evaluation.
-
The device is designed for fiber types: SM, MM, DS and fibers that are insensitive to bends that meet the G.657 standard.
-
The user controls the machine exclusively using the keyboard.
-
Fibertool Beta’s diameter alignment feature is one of the fastest on the market. Splicing fibers in SM-SM mode takes no more than 9 seconds.
-
The heater shrinks a typical 60mm sleeve in 25 to 33 seconds depending on the sleeve material.
-
The software supports electrodes of any power.
-
Replacement of electrodes does not require a QR code, password or account.
-
The world's most common ELCT2-20A electrodes are used.
-
The device allows you to independently perform scheduled maintenance.
-
KIT fiber clamps allow fixing optical fibers on the outer coating of cables with the following diameters: 0.25 mm, 0.9 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, flat cable 3x2 mm, and sliding cover 0.9 mm (Loose Buffer).
-
In addition to textual information, the log contains a screenshot of the splicing joint. Logging is performed cyclically (when overflowing, old entries are replaced by new ones).

Just hooked up the Beta fusion splicer for a big project. It's a solid tool, reliable and straightforward in operation. While it's not the cheapest on the market, the performance and durability justify the investment. Plus, the store's service and quick shipping made the whole process smooth.
