Abstract:
A method for manufacturing an optical fiber ribbon where adjacent optical fibers are intermittently connected in a length direction includes: feeding the optical fibers along the length direction; and intermittently applying a resin in the length direction by: rotating, between adjacent ones of the optical fibers, a rotating member having a recess, and blocking the resin with a peripheral edge part of the rotating member where the recess is not formed. A moving speed, in the length direction, of the peripheral edge part at a position where the peripheral edge part blocks the resin between the optical fibers is slower than a feeding speed of the optical fibers.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for manufacturing an optical fiber ribbon where adjacent optical fibers are intermittently connected in a length direction, the method comprising:\n feeding the optical fibers along the length direction; and intermittently applying a resin in the length direction by:\n rotating, between adjacent ones of the optical fibers, a rotating member having a recess, and \n blocking the resin with a peripheral edge part of the rotating member where the recess is not formed, \n wherein a moving speed, in the length direction, of the peripheral edge part at a position where the peripheral edge part blocks the resin between the optical fibers is slower than a feeding speed of the optical fibers.
