Description:
The
Type-66 TuffCat mass fusion splicer features the industry's first
Dual-Automatic-Splice Protection Sleeve Heater System - Sumitomo's exclusive
patent-pending system. The dual heater system's simultaneous operation helps to
eliminate squandered time waiting for a single heater system to complete its
cycle. Instead, the streamlined splicing process reduces the bottle neck of
"heater wait time" by 88%, improving mass splicing effciency and productivity in
the fiel by 70%.
The TuffCat features an effortless fiber holder systme to increase splice
repeatability while making the unit easy to use regardless of the operator's
experience level Utilizing precision v-groove alignment, the TuffCat can be used
for all types of ribbon and single splicing with an optimum arrangement for ease
of use in trunk, aerial, or taut-sheath applications.
The TuffCat mass fusion splicer embodies Sumitomo's mission of customer focused
engineering by reducing the customer's overal cost of ownership. The unit
features electrodes common with both the Type-39 FastCat and the Type-25e TomCat
handheld splicers, as well as existing Sumitomo Type-61, 62, 63, and 65 fusion
splicers.
