A device for grinding and polishing optical fiber ends. The device includes
a holder and an elastic grinding surface. The holder is used to hold
equidistantly a set of optical fibers such that the ends of the optical
fibers are in contact with the elastic grinding surface capable of only
eccentric rotation, to enable the grinding speed and the grinding
direction of each of the optical fiber ends to be the same. The grinding
direction is uniformly changed along with the change in time and the
grinding angles in all direction are substantially the same.
