Abstract
PURPOSE:To form a metallic tube for incorporating an optical fiber and improve working efficiency by forming the metallic tube successively so as to cover the periphery of the advancing optical fiber warmly and reducing the diameter of the metallic tube by plural times. CONSTITUTION:An optical fiber 1 and a metallic tape 3 are fed from reels 1 and 2, respectively and the optical fiber 1 advances while getting on the magnetic tape 3. On the way of the advance, both the edges of the metallic tape 3 are molded roundly by the modling die 6-L of a forming unit 6 and the butted edges are welded by a welding torch 7 to form the metallic tube. The diameter of the metallic tube is reduced by the first diameter reducing apparatus 8 and, after passing through a vortex flow flaw detector, the metallic tube is pulled out by a catapillar 10. Then the diameter is reduced again by the 2nd diameter reducing apparatus and, after being reduced again by the 3rd diameter reducing apparatus if necessary, the metallic tube is wound up around a winding drum 11.
