In industrial application, natural fibers or synthetic fibers can be combined to be made into fiber paper and various textiles, and can be directly used as insulating materials, electric insulating materials and high-temperature-resistant insulating materials; glass fibers among inorganic fibers, such as optical fibers used in daily life, are processed and combined through various processes, and become an important carrier for the technical development of the current communication industry.
There is a constant need in the industry to join multiple monomers of such materials side-by-side. The connection is that a plurality of independent flexible thin lines are locally combined into a whole side by side in a gas flame, electric arc heating fusion or special medium bonding mode and the like. The method includes cutting the flexible thin wire wound into long coil into sections according to length requirement, combining two or more flexible thin wires side by side, welding and the like to form a combined material or device with specific functions. For example: the optical fiber coupler is generally manufactured by fusing two optical fibers together through a hydrogen combustion flame, i.e., heat.
Due to the material characteristics of the flexible thin wires, most of the processes (such as flexible thin wire length segmentation, flexible thin wire surface coating material stripping and cleaning and the like) in the existing connection process still need manual operation, especially the micron-sized flexible thin wire connection process needs to be completed with the assistance of a high-multiple microscope, the labor intensity of workers is high, the requirement on the operation quality of the workers is high, the product quality is unstable, the product consistency is poor, and the method becomes a serious bottleneck for restricting the productivity and quality improvement of related industries. Therefore, a universal process method of a fully automatic coupling system for flexible thin wires is urgently needed to be developed.
