This unit

The Fujikura FSM-30R is a ribbon fusion splicer engineered for single-fiber and multi-fiber ribbon splicing in telecommunications and network infrastructure. It delivers automated arc fusion and heating cycles with precision fiber alignment to achieve consistent, low-loss splices across SM, MM, NZ-DS, and DS fiber types. Field and laboratory deployment-ready, the FSM-30R combines fast splicing cycles with modular power architecture and altitude-compensating arc control.

Fujikura FSM-30R — Repair & Calibration Service

Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Fujikura FSM-30R. 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.

Standard Cal
$450
Pass/fail cert + NIST sticker
Cal with Data
$650
Full NIST cert with measured values

Common Fujikura FSM-30R 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.
