Abstract—An apparatus for the manufacture of optical dielectric quartz glass microresonators using the thermal method is described. One distinctive feature of this apparatus is the ability to automatically manufacture resonators with a given diameter and deviation between the plane of the tangent to the equator of the resonator and the axial line of the legs. The results of comparing “manual” and mechanized manufacturing techniques for resonators are presented, which demonstrate the advantages of the mechanized manufacturing technique.
