Abstract
An optical fiber cable processing device includes a transport mechanism which transports a case that accommodates an optical fiber cable and in which plural work stations are set along a transport path, and a processing mechanism that performs each of desired operations on the optical fiber cable, in which any one of the plural work stations is a mounting station in which a work mounting mechanism mounts a work on a tip of the optical fiber cable, a drawing mechanism that draws out the optical fiber cable and a correction mechanism that corrects a bending tendency of the optical fiber cable are disposed in the work stations on an upstream side of the mounting station, and the transport mechanism transports the case to the mounting station and mounts the work on the tip of the optical fiber cable in a state where the optical fiber cable is drawn out.
