Development and Fabrication of the Fiber Optic MicroCable (Trademark)

Abstract

This report describes the development and fabrication of the Fiber Optic MicroCable (TM) (FOMC (TM)). The research into and selection of raw materials, fabrication components, and fabrication methods are discussed in Part 1. Part 11 consists of process instructions relevant to plant operation. FOMC manufacturing system setup procedure and operation checks, shutdown, as well as problems one can expect to encounter are discussed in Part 2. This report concludes with clean-up procedures of the FOMC manufacturing system. Fiber Optic MicroCable(TM)(FOMC-), Ultraviolet(UV) curing system, Fiberglass-reinforced polymer (RFP), Fiberglass yarn, LTV-Curable adhesives, Fabrication.
