APPARATUS OF MANUFACTURING ELECTRIC CONDUCTING FIBERS FOR UBIQUITOUS FIBER AND SMART WEAR

摘要

PURPOSE: An electroconductive fiber manufacturing device is provided to prevent truncation of the metal coating and rapidly obtain a metal-coated fiber of the uniform coating thickness by flexibly controlling the diameter and thickness of the coated fiber. CONSTITUTION: An electroconductive fiber manufacturing device includes a fiber filament feeder(110) offering a fiber filament(130), a smelting furnace(120) offering the metal melt coating the fiber filament, and a winder(150) reeling the metal-coated fiber filament. The metal melting furnace comprises a nozzle(126) where a metal melt is formed. The fiber filament is coated by passing or being contacted with the metal melt which is formed in the nozzle.
