Abstract
A plurality of light waveguides are conducted side-by-side through a coating arrangement that will surround the waveguides and supply them with a coating material for enclosing the light waveguides to form a ribbon conductor. The light waveguides are guided freely running both proceeding as in the coating arrangement so that they essentially come into contact only with the coating material. A drag flow or entrained flow of the liquid coating material contributes to a self-centering of the light waveguides and is produced by the longitudinal motion of the light waveguides in the coating material of the arrangement.
