Abstract
A method for manufacturing an optical fiber preform is described that includes detecting structural integrity of the tube during a collapsing phase utilizing a fluid flow that is fed to the tube. Also, a system for manufacturing optical fiber preforms is described that comprises a holder configured to hold a tube, a heater configured to heat at least part of the tube to a tube collapsing temperature, and a fluid supply system configured to supply a fluid to the tube held by the holder. The system comprises a tube integrity monitor configured to monitor structural integrity of the tube, during a collapsing phase, by monitoring the fluid.
