Method and apparatus for optical fiber coloring |
摘要 |
A method of coloring optical fibers during the optical fiber drawing that includes the steps of feeding a natural fiber coating material and a colorant to a mixer; mixing the natural fiber coating material and the colorant in the mixer to obtain a colored coating material; and supplying the colored coating material to a coating die. The feeding step includes exerting on the natural fiber coating a first gas pressure variable with at least one fiber drawing parameter; and exerting on the colorant a second gas pressure variable with at least one fiber drawing parameter. |

1. A method of coloring optical fibers during the optical fiber drawing, comprising the steps of:
feeding a natural fiber coating material and a colorant to a mixer; mixing the natural fiber coating material and the colorant in the mixer to obtain a colored coating material; and supplying the colored coating material to a coating die, wherein the feeding step comprises exerting on the natural fiber coating a first gas pressure variable with at least one fiber drawing parameter; and exerting on the colorant a second gas pressure variable with at least one fiber drawing parameter; wherein said first and second gas pressures are exerted by a single pressure source; and wherein a single controllable valve controls said first and second gas pressures exerted by the single pressure source. |
