Abstract

Procédé et appareil pour découper simultanément une série de fibres de verre. Après avoir fixé les fibres brutes 1, un couteau 15 constitué par exemple de diamant ou d'un alliage très dur, est amené de façon à appliquer une pression sur les câbles nus 4 à la position de découpe désirée 14, de telle sorte que toutes les lignes des points de compression sont marquées par le couteau 15. Application aux fibres optiques.A method and apparatus for simultaneously cutting a series of glass fibers. After fixing the raw fibers 1, a knife 15 made, for example, of diamond or of a very hard alloy, is brought so as to apply pressure on the bare cables 4 at the desired cutting position 14, so that all the lines of the compression points are marked by the knife 15. Application to optical fibers.
