Abstract
The device is provided with a heating jaw, which softens the protective layers of optical fibers in order to be able to cut them more easily and to pull them off. For particularly thick optical fibers, the heating jaw is provided with a longitudinal groove with which the contact surface to the optical fiber is enlarged and the heating of the protective layer is accelerated.
