A fiber patch cord and pigtail production line typically involves several key processes to ensure high-quality output. Here's a general overview of what such a production line might include:
Fiber Optic Cables: Opting for the right fiber models (single-mode vs. multi-mode).
Connectors: Different connector types required depending on the individual scenario (SC, LC, ST, FC, MTP, etc.).
Sheathing and Jackets: Outer layers cover that guarantees protection.
Fiber cables and connectors are all necessary materials, and production can start. The cables, normally supplied on reels, should be cut into required lengths. While the manual cutting is possible, automated machines add to productivity, which can be beneficial as demand rises. This machine is compatible with various cable specifications and lengths, including cutting, strapping, and wrapping functions with high accuracy.
After cutting, the cables have to be cleaned to take off the allowable residues before the connectors are inserted. Arrange the cable system in such a way that the method of connector attachment is made easy.
Use a jacket stripper to take off the outer jacket that may differ in diameter (3.0 mm, 2.0 mm, or 0.9 mm). The miller stripper is now used to strip the tight-buffered 0.9 mm inner jacket. Identification pastes help in distinguishing the cables for duplex or multi-channel assemblies.
Apply epoxy on the fiber surface and insert the fiber in the ferrule of the connector, in most of the cases using 353 Epoxy. This can be done either manually or via machine.
probably in the connector, via vertical or horizontal furnace, this can be achieved.
Continue to follow with joining together of the remaining part of the connectors to the cables.
After this, the half-finished patch cords undergo cleaning with ultrasonic machines, and the connector interfaces are polished to ensure symmetrical alignment between the two parts.
Check the connector interface using a microscope (with 400x or 600x magnification) to make sure there is no dirt. If there's dust, the connector can be re-cleaned.
for LM for final quality control, which will test the patch cord by measuring the insertion and return loss value that are essential parameters for performance.
The last step is packaging, where you need to make sure that the cords are well secured in the package according to the customer's specifications.
Fiber patch cords and pigtail production line has a carefully measured sequence involving precise procedures to manufacture quality goods. The accomplishment of each line is fundamental in the provision of reliable and performant fiber optic networks. Our production line also incorporates all the necessary equipment for fiber polishing and provides training on professional fiber handling techniques.
