Optical Fiber Polishing Machine APM Model HDC-5300

The Domaille APM-HDC-5300 is the most accurate, technologically advanced polishing machine in the market today.  Like all Domaille brand machines, the machine is designed with a rigid fixture system that is far superior to floating fixture systems.  Specially designed for complex multi-fiber applications like MPO or MTP, this polisher allows you to program your polishing processes through an easy-to-use PC-based Windows-like full-color touch screen panel. Once programmed, the panel displays your settings for speed, time, and pressure, and also prompts the operator for the film, pad, and lubricant needed for each step of the process.

The number of processes that can be defined and stored within the APM-HDC-5300 is only limited by the amount of machine memory. This means hundreds of processes and steps within each process can be stored on a single machine.  This is especially useful for quick change from one connector type to another. The machine is also designed with the ability to change languages and to export many key processing parameters.  

The APM-HDC-5300 also has fully programmable pressure and speed ramp rates for slow starting the polishing process. It also has programmable film change counters and maintenance section for alerting operators when to change film or provide service to the machine. If the number of connectors loaded into the polishing fixture is less than the default that has been programmed, the automatic pressure adjustment feature allows the operator to enter the actual number of connectors loaded. The required pressure is then automatically recalculated to ensure that the individual connector force remains constant regardless of the number of connectors assumed in the process definition.

The APM-HDC-5300 also provides the capability to copy and store your processes to a USB. The USB can be used to backup your defined processes and to copy processes from one machine to another. This not only saves process setup time for each machine, but also ensures consistent process settings.
