Abstract:
A tool and a method for forming a pair of recesses on an endface of a fiber optic ferrule are disclosed. The tool includes a base, a ferrule holder slidingly mounted to the base along a guided path, and a pair of material removing members extending in a direction parallel to the guided path. The material removing members are spaced a distance perpendicular to the guided path from each other and mounted to the base. The tool includes a linkage that clamps and centers the ferrule about the tool. The recesses can adjoin pin holes of the ferrule. The linkage can be a parallelogram linkage.
