"The process to remove the residual torsion in the optical fiber ribbon exposed portions of a fiber optic cable, and set of a fiber optic cable.The invention is relating to a device and a process for removing the residual torsion in the optical fiber tapes of a fiber optic cable of the type used in the telecommunications industry.The cable 1 includes a core, a plurality of substantially helical grooves located in the central core, a plurality of optical fiber ribbon 11 located inside the grooves.A protective sheath and a portion intermediate the external cable that has a fixed length includes respective intermediate portions, not cut.Tapes exposed that were released to the central core and the protective sheath. The device comprises a spool 20 adapted to be wrapped at least something of the tape exposed.When the tapes are wound on the spool portions of the ribbons downstream from the spool are free of residual torsion.
