<p>An optical fiber winder comprises a frame and an array of pulleys for guiding fiber (12a) from a fiber source to a takeup spool (14a), each of the pulleys in the array being mechanically linked to the frame. The array of pulleys includes a regulator pulley (36) linked to the frame by a passive tension regulating element (38), the regulator pulley providing a fiber buffer for high frequency tugs on the fiber being wound onto the takeup spool, the regulator pulley further limiting tension oscillations in the fiber being wound onto the takeup spool.</p> |
