METHOD AND DEVICE FOR STRIPPING FIBRES IN A FIBRE BUNDLE

摘要

The invention relates to a method and a device for removing the sheath or for stripping fibres of a fibre bundle. Each fibre comprises a core and a sheath, wherein a) the fibres are arranged adjacent to each other on a base such as to run in a first direction, b) a cut is made with two blades running perpendicular to the first direction in a plane from opposing sides such that the blades from a notch in each sheath running in the circumferential direction, c) the fibre bundle is then dipped in a chemical solvent up to the cuts in the fibres for a given period in order to preweaken the connection between the sheath and the core and d) the preweakened sheath sections are mechanically drawn from the fibre cores.
