    摘要: In the manufacturing of optical fiber preform with excellent accuracy of outer diameter made of the rod as drawn from synthetic quartz ingot, the outer diameter measuring devices 67 and 68 measure the outer diameters of the cone 2 and rod 3 drawn from the ingot 1, and the drawing speed is controlled based on the measured outer diameters. The optical fiber preform manufacturing apparatus that finishes the rod into truly round form without any curve has a rotary holding means 13 and 14 that hold the rod 3 resulting from the heating and drawing of the ingot 1 rotating it in synchronization with the rotation of the ingot 1, a comparison device 18 that outputs a signal after comparing the outer diameter of the cone 2 as measured by the outer diameter measuring device 11 with that of the referential circle, a control device 19 that controls the rotational amount of the rotating device 10, and a control device 20 that controls the rotational amount of the rotary holding device 13 and 14.

    摘要: A method for drawing a mother ingot into a preform for optical fibers comprises providing a mother ingot, subjecting the mother ingot to measurement of a distribution of refractive index along radial directions thereof to determine a ratio of a core diameter to a clad diameter, and comparing the thus determined ratio with a predetermined ratio between the core diameter and the ingot diameter which ensures intended optical transmission characteristics, under which if the determined ratio is insufficient for the intended light transmission characteristics, the mother ingot is further processed until the predetermined ratio is substantially attained, and the resultant ingot is drawn to a preform, or if the determined ratio is acceptable on comparison with the predetermined ratio, the mother ingot is finally drawn.

    摘要: An apparatus for manufacturing a glass-base-material, which is a base material of an optical fiber, includes a driving unit that drives a glass rod around an axis of the glass rod; a burner for accumulating glass soot around outside surface of the glass rod, which is driven by the driving unit, to form the glass-base-material; a weight-deducting unit, on which the driving unit is mounted, for deducting a predetermined weight from a total weight of the driving unit and the glass-base-material formed by the burner; and a measuring unit provided under the weight-deducting unit for measuring the total weight, from which the predetermined weight is deducted by the weight-deducting unit.
