Abstract Effects of draw parameters, such as drawing temperature and feed speed, on the capillaries and the geometry of the final photonic crystal fibre (PCF) are investigated. Inert gas pressurization is introduced in the preform during the fibre drawing process to finely control the geometry of the PCF so that good uniform in transversal and longitudinal of the final PCF can be realized. Due to the introduction of a special method, the drawing temperature is increased over 1900°C and the strength of the PCF is enhanced.
