ABSTRACT:
A method and an apparatus for forming a waveguide conductor ribbon by passing several light waveguides through a through-opening so that as the waveguides are passed through the opening, they are coated by a liquid coating material, which creates a drag force current for moving the waveguides through the opening. The diameter of the light waveguides and/or the position of the light waveguides inside the ribbon conductor is determined and the width of the through-opening of the coating apparatus is modified on the basis of the measured diameter value and/or on the basis of the size of any gap between the fibers to optimize the amount of drag current forces being produced.
