Sumitomo Electric Releases the T-72M12+, a New AI-Programmed Mass Fusion Splicer

Sumitomo Electric Releases the T-72M12+, a New AI-Programmed Mass Fusion Splicer

door CN Rood

Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd. has released a new fusion splicer, T-72M12+. Equipped with its patented “NanoTuneTM” AI technology, the T-72M12+ will significantly improve splicing accuracy and work efficiency to facilitate mass splicing.



The T-72M12+ is the successor model to the T-72M12 mass fusion splicer. In addition to the features of the previous model, such as a lightweight and compact frame, fast splicing, and high environmental resistance, the T-72M12+ offers new features, including NanoTune™, our patented AI technology.
The new model will enable faster and more accurate splicing and thereby facilitate the installation of ultra-high-density, high-fibre-count cables, which are in growing demand especially in data centres.

The main features of the T-72M12+ are as follows:

1. Significant reduction in splicing failures with NanoTune™

Our patented AI technology is now applied to mass splicing. Splicing conditions can be fine-tuned with high accuracy by recognizing the end face of each fibre. NanoTune™ supports high-quality mass splicing regardless of operating conditions and user skill levels. This technology minimizes the need for re-splicing due to insufficient fibre preparation, such as poor cleaving.

 

2. Further improvement of high-accuracy fibre clamping with the Auto Clamping Adjustment System(ACAS)

The new model has further improved the technology for automating the reliable setting of optical fibres in the V-groove, which is a critical task during mass splicing. It has become possible to set optical fibres along the V-grooves more reliably by moving the clamp mechanism up and down automatically. Highly accurate fibre clamping reduces splice losses.

 

3. Special coating on V-grooves and microscope lens cover for easy daily maintenance

A special anti-dust surface coating has been developed to prevent buildup of dust in the V-grooves, which immediately leads to the deterioration of splicing performance. The coating allows dust to be easily wiped off with a brush or cotton swab to maintain high-quality splicing. The anti-dust and anti-scratch coating is also applied to the glass cover to protect the microscope, which plays a key role in observing the end face of tiny fibres. The effectiveness of NanoTune™ is maximized by constantly maintaining clear images through regular cleaning.

 

4. V-grooves replacement function for ultra-high-fibre-count high-density cables

A V-groove replacement function has been added. The product can be used for 200?m-pitch fibre ribbons in addition to 250?m-pitch fibre ribbons. Any user can easily replace the V-grooves without special tools. Users can readily replace parts in the case of an emergency, such as damage to the V-grooves.



With the spread of telecommuting, telemedicine, and online lessons, the need for high-speed, large-capacity, and low-latency communication networks is expected to increase. The Sumitomo Electric Group continues to contribute to the construction of communication networks by developing and offering products that meet customers’ needs, such as further improving workability, ensuring reliability, and improving functionality and expandability.

CN Rood

Degelijk.  Betrouwbaar. Kennispartner.

De CN Rood groep is koploper in kennis en oplossingen op het gebied van test- en meetapparatuur. We onderscheiden ons met een persoonlijke en klantgerichte aanpak. Onze klanten zoeken vaak niet een product, maar een oplossing en wij hebben allemaal de gedrevenheid om mee te werken aan die oplossing. Wat wij het liefste doen: continu bezig zijn met de nieuwste ontwikkelingen op het gebied van test- en meetapparatuur. Nu, en in de toekomst. Want daar ligt nu eenmaal onze passie: het precies willen weten. Zo kunnen we onze klanten optimaal verder helpen.

Wij denken mee, adviseren en begeleiden onze klanten in het maken van de juiste keuze in hun test- en meetapparatuur. Mensen in verschillende sectoren vertrouwen op onze expertise en ons advies. We werken voor overheid, wetenschap, onderwijs, lucht- en ruimtevaart- en auto-industrie in Noord-Europa en de Benelux. Daaronder bevinden zich vele prestigieuze en vooraanstaande organisaties. Vanuit locaties in Zweden, Nederland en België werken meer dan zestig toegewijde professionals aan oplossingen variërend van communicatie-testapparatuur en algemene test- en meetinstrumenten tot apparatuur voor data-acquisitie, logistieke automatisering, aangevuld met consultancy, training en turnkeyoplossingen.

We hebben een historie die teruggaat tot 1938. Onze oprichter, Cornelis Nicolaas Rood, was destijds een pionier in moderne elektronica. Onze mensen bevinden zich ook anno nu graag in de frontlinie van technologische ontwikkelingen. Op onze eigen manier leveren we zo een bijdrage aan belangrijke maatschappelijke vraagstukken. Bijvoorbeeld in energietransitie, quantum computing, medische technologie, de zelfrijdende auto, de auto op zonne-energie, de energie transitie en alle andere deeptech die bijdraagt aan de schonere en betere wereld van morgen.

Daarom letten we ook op onze eigen impact op het milieu en klimaat. Aangezien wij vooral een adviserende functie hebben is onze eigen milieu-footprint gering. Vanzelfsprekend zien we wel toe op een zo duurzaam mogelijke productie van de apparatuur die wij verkopen en zorgen we voor een maatschappelijk verantwoorde bedrijfsvoering. Al onze producten kopen we uitsluitend in bij gecertificeerde fabrikanten die werken met herleidbare en verantwoorde grondstoffen. Gebruikte apparatuur wordt kosteloos opgehaald en gerecycled.

Het zijn maar een paar voorbeelden om duidelijk te maken dat we hechten aan een langetermijnvisie op de wereld om ons heen. Want juist met een geschiedenis van meer dan tachtig jaar kun je goed vooruitkijken. Daarom blijven we ook vooroplopen. Onze brede en diepe technische kennis van test- en meetapparatuur, in combinatie met onze persoonlijke connectie met onze klanten, maken ons uniek in de markt. De CN Rood groep is uw degelijke en betrouwbare kennispartner voor test- en meetapparatuur!
