<p>A glass base material producing device for producing a glass base material used for the material of an optical fiber, characterized by comprising a plurality of burners disposed in a row at specified intervals along the longitudinal direction of a starting base material, for forming a deposit that functions as the base material of the glass base material by depositing glass fine particles on the starting base material while the particles being reciprocatingly moved over a section of the entire length of the starting base material along the longitudinal direction of the starting base material of the glass base material, flow rate regulators at least one of which is connected to each of the plurality of burners, for regulating the flow rates of a synthesis gas of glass fine particles supplied to the burners, and a control unit connected to respective flow rate regulators, for separately controlling the flow rate regulators.</p> |
