摘要
<p>An optical fiber soot synthesis apparatus which synthesizes around a fiber starting member(2) forming a core of an optical fiber an optical fiber soot(5) forming a cladding and which accurately calculates in real time the mass of the optical fiber soot when deposited so as to control the synthesis of the optical fiber soot. The optical fiber soot synthesis apparatus measures the weight of the rotating fiber starting member(2) and optical fiber soot(5) by a pair of soot weight detection sensors(16A, 16B) arranged at a fiber starting member support and rotational drive mechanisms(4A, 4B) divided so as to prevent the weight of the rotational drive mechanisms from having much of an effect. The computation and control apparatus(70) performs operational processing from the measured weights and calculates the mass of only the optical fiber soot(5) synthesized on the fiber starting member(2) in real time. The computation and calculation apparatus(70) refers to the calculated mass to control the synthesis of the optical fiber soot(5). <IMAGE></p>
