<p>An optical fiber cleaving device (10,100) has a movable scoring element (24,124) mounted between a movable arm (22, 122) and a fiber support member (14, 114). The scoring element (24, 124) is responsive to the movement of the movable arm (22, 122) to move relative to both the movable arm (22, 122) and the fiber support member (14, 114). This relative movement permits regulation of the force at which the scoring element (24, 124) scores the fiber (30, 130) supported on the support member (14,114). Such regulation provides for a more precise depth of score reducing adverse effects thereof.</p> |
