  • Optical fiber marking method and device
    Patent number: 5119464

The inkjet is sprayed in a plane perpendicular to the direction of forward movement of the fibers. The marking device comprises a head for spraying a jet of ink in a plane intersecting all the fibers reciprocating from one extreme fiber of the flat bundle to the other. The spray head moves in a plane perpendicular to the direction of forward movement of the fibers.
