This article developed a micromachining system of arcing helical fiber with four electrodes to address the issues with conventional approaches to processing helical fibers, which have several uses. The technique may be utilized to create several types of helical fibers. First, the simulation demonstrates that the four-electrode arc’s constant-temperature heating area is larger than the two-electrode arc’s size. A large constant-temperature heating area is not only beneficial to the stress release of fiber, but also reduces the influence of fiber vibration and reduces the difficulty of device debugging. Then, a variety of helical fibers with various pitches were processed using the system presented in this research. By using a microscope, it can be observed that the cladding and core edges of the helical fiber are constantly smooth and the central core is tiny and off-axis, both of which are favorable for the propagation of optical waveguides. A low off-axis has been shown to minimize optical loss through modeling of energy coupling in spiral multi-core optical fibers. The transmission spectrum findings indicated that the device’s insertion loss and transmission spectrum fluctuation were both minimal for four different types of multi-core spiral long-period fiber gratings with intermediate cores. These prove that the spiral fibers prepared by this system have excellent quality.
