Abstract
A method for inspecting axis dislocation of a multifiber connector provided with a plurality of fiber insertion holes into which optical fibers are inserted for inspecting axis dislocation of each of the fiber insertion holes based on an inspection light irradiated from a light source. A reference connector to be a reference in inspection and a sample connector to be inspected are positioned at predetermined positions, the inspection light irradiated from each of the fiber insertion holes is irradiated to a position detection sensor through an optical system, the position of the inspection light is detected on the light receiving surface of the position detection sensor, and then, an amount of axis dislocation of each of the fiber insertion holes of the sample connector corresponding to each of the fiber insertion holes of the reference connector is inspected based on the detected position of each of the fiber insertion holes.
