Abstract
The method involves passing fibers (1) around a peripheral portion of an impregnation roll (2) and impinging the fibers with an impregnation medium. The fibers are passed during the impregnation by a gap (8). The gap is formed between the impregnation roll and a counter bearing (7) that is assigned to the impregnation roll. An independent claim is also included for a device for impregnating fiber strands or fibers bundle, particularly in the form of continuous fiber.
