4.3 Stripping Process

The AUA-M9 is designed to complete the hot stripping of up to 48 optical fibers in one go, significantly improving working efficiency.

1. Select the appropriate temperature mode and setting based on the fiber type and coating material.
2. Carefully insert the optical fiber(s) into the stripping slot, ensuring they are properly aligned with the limit blade.
3. Close the stripper cover firmly. The device will apply heat and strip the fiber coating.
4. Once the stripping is complete, open the cover and carefully remove the stripped fiber(s).
5. Inspect the stripped fiber for cleanliness and ensure no damage has occurred.
