Abstract

See full text

A production method for a carbon fiber precursor fiber bundle and a production apparatus of the carbon fiber precursor fiber bundle. A carbon fiber precursor fiber bundle that has a degree of intermingle of 1 m−1 or less between small tows, consists of substantially straight fibers without imparted crimp, a tow of which straight fibers has a moisture content of less than 10% by mass when housed in a container, and has a widthwise dividing capability to maintain a form of a single aggregate of tows when housed in a container, taken out from the container and guided into a firing step, and to divide into a plurality of small tows in the firing step by the tension generated in the firing step.
