ABSTRACT:
Laying a transmission member into a groove extending along a support while passing around the support for more than one revolution in one direction and then in the other. The transmission member is fed from a fixed storage position, through a positioning device and to a laying device while being spaced radially from a passline for the support. A shielding tube is provided around the passline downstream from the positioning device whereby the support moves through the tube on its way to the laying head whereas the transmission member twists around the tube as it is being fed, thereby holding it separated from the support before reaching the laying head. Preferably, an alignment device upstream from the laying head aligns the transmission member axially with a guide passage in the laying head. This latter arrangement is particularly useful when the transmission member is a tube containing optical fibers.
