This unit
The Fujikura 12S is a single-fiber fusion splicer engineered for field deployment across diverse fiber types and network environments. It delivers typical splice losses of 0.018 dB to 0.05 dB on single-mode fiber and completes splicing in 15 seconds, with heating cycles in 30 seconds using standard protection sleeves. The unit combines dual-camera alignment with a 4.47-inch color LCD monitor at 100x magnification to ensure precise core positioning and loss estimation before and after the splice cycle.

Fujikura 12S — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Fujikura 12S. Calibration covers arc calibration (arc power and duration), V-groove alignment verification, cleave angle detection accuracy, splice loss estimation accuracy, and heating oven temperature calibration. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common Fujikura 12S faults: electrode wear, V-groove contamination or chipping, motor alignment drift, high arc voltage errors. Common repairs include electrode replacement (typically every 2,000-3,000 arcs), V-groove cleaning or replacement, motor and actuator alignment, and camera/CCD replacement. Fujikura FSM and Sumitomo Type series parts are stocked.
