TECHNICAL FAQ
Questions for application planning
What determines a suitable intermittent bond pattern?
The fiber count, ribbon geometry, line process, rollability and individual-fiber access requirements should be evaluated together.
What should be defined before evaluation?
Define the fiber count, bond pattern, ribbon geometry, cure process and handling tests.
Should rollability be tested on the finished ribbon?
Yes. Bond design, process conditions and the finished ribbon structure all affect handling and fiber access.
