Abstract

In order to produce an exact seat for the naked end of the optical fibre, a laser beam is directed onto the lens (13), which focuses this laser beam onto the base surface (14) of a bore (12) in the endpiece. The material on the base of the bore is thereby vaporised, and a sink (31) is produced for accommodating the fibre end.
