The hot air is ejected from the air hole 10 and the hot air hole 8 to act on the heat shrink tube, thereby shrinking the heat shrink tube and fixing it on the cable. The heat shrink time needs to be set here. The sheath material of the optical cable is generally PVC or LSZH, and the heat shrink tube material is generally PVC with different thicknesses. Generally, when the optical cable is made of PVC, the heat shrink temperature shall not be higher than 70 degrees and the time shall not exceed 5S.
