Abstract

A fiber handling system (FHS) is described in this paper to minimize fiber damages during handling in manufacturing processes of optical components. The manufacture of an undersea telecommunication component is used as an example to demonstrate the FHS concept. However, this FHS concept can be used in any manufacturing process that involves optical fibers.
