Fujikura-70S, a marvel of automation


Johannesburg, 01 Aug 2016

The talk of optic fibre and FTTH (Fibre to the Home) is dominating our daily lives these days. Everyone is talking about it, every billboard advertises it, everyone wants it. The optic fibre market is booming and this means that everyone wants to jump onto the bandwagon. This is all great; however, it opens the door for many non-desirable products to hit our market and many uninformed newcomers fall into the buy cheap, pay twice trap.

Fujikura, a truly Japanese company presents the Fujikura-70S. The 70S is a true marvel of engineering and represents the best of what the market has to offer in splicing machines. The 70S won the Global Fusion Splicers Customer Value Leadership award from Frost & Sullivan. It features programmable automated splicing and heater oven. This means it splices in four steps, compared to nine steps for conventional splicers. It is also the fastest in its range, splicing in six seconds and heating in only nine seconds.

These features are impressive; however, what makes the unit even more special is the fact that it is fully supported in Southern Africa and that all service and repairs are done locally at IC Logistix's accredited calibration laboratory in Ferndale, Randburg.
