APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING CORE ROD OF OPTICAL FIBER

A method for producing a depressed-cladding core rod of an ultra-low water peak optical fiber, the method including 1) producing a core rod component; 2) producing an inner cladding casing component; 3) disposing the core rod hollow shaft and the casing hollow shaft respectively in the glass lathe; 4) cutting off connections among a pressure controlling pipe, a scrubber, and a vacuum pump; 5) connecting the inner cladding casing to the core rod hollow shaft hermetically; 6) turning on the glass lathe; 7) transporting a first mixture gas to the core rod hollow shaft; 8) moving a high temperature heat source; 9) transporting a second mixture gas to the core rod hollow shaft; 10) transporting the first mixture gas to the core rod hollow shaft; 11) transporting the first mixture gas under certain conditions; and 12) controlling relevant parameters to fuse the inner cladding casing with the core layer rod.
