Field Master Motorized Polisher

Overview

Stran Technologies’s FM1000 series fiber connector polishers are unique field or lab polishing machines. The Field Master is equipped with a high-torque DC motor that can operate between 6-12 V DC.

The Field Master allows adjustable force through a micrometer to ensure consistent dome finish for a wide variety of connector types and the number of connectors in the fixture. The user can polish 1-2 connectors/ferrules in one polish run. The improvement in polish quality and end-face geometry with a polisher, particularly important for single-mode fiber connectorization, is a significant step forward for technicians and installers who are used to polishing connectors by hand using a polishing puck.
