Description

Optical communication is becoming the communication of choice in many situations, from consumer electronics to supercomputers and data centers. With the maturation of 5G technology, the number of fiber optic connectors required has increased substantially.
The prior art processes are to use mechanical wire stripper to strip the optical fiber coating, so that the glass fiber in the optical fiber coating is exposed, the diameter of the common communication optical fiber coating is 0.25mm, the diameter of the cladding is only 0.125mm, the caliber of the common mechanical wire stripper is generally 0.13mm, and the sharpness of the edge of the mechanical wire stripper directly influences the stripping effect because the surface of the cladding cannot touch scratch and the coating on the cladding can be stripped cleanly. The long-term use of the fiber stripping pliers can lead the knife edge to become blunt and the caliber to be increased, so that equipment maintenance is required for a long time, and the time and the labor are wasted. At present, common mechanical wire stripper is operated manually, the length of stripped fiber cannot be controlled accurately, when stripped fiber, the glass fiber in the cladding layer can be pressed by utilizing the bayonet blade to extrude and cut into the coating layer, if the pressure applied by the blade is not sharp, the pressure applied by the cladding layer is larger, so that the fiber is directly broken, or the fiber splitting phenomenon occurs in the cladding layer. Some recessive split products may not affect use, but may severely affect product life. Moreover, the mechanical stripper is not very clean and requires a secondary cleaning of the exposed cladding to remove coating debris from the cladding, which in turn creates a new problem and the cleaner can lead to reduced fiber life.
CN216285810U discloses an optical fiber coating stripping device, which comprises a fixing seat, a fixing frame, a heating plate, a sawtooth blade, an air pipe and a transverse moving clamping device. The optical fiber is placed on the fixing seat through the transverse moving clamping device and is located below the sawtooth blade, the heating plate and the sawtooth blade move downwards and compress the optical fiber on the fixing seat, the heating plate heats the part to be stripped of the optical fiber, the optical fiber is pulled out of the fixing seat through the transverse moving clamping device, the coating part of the part to be stripped of the optical fiber is stripped, the heating plate and the sawtooth blade move upwards, and the fiber core of the optical fiber is placed on the fixing seat through the air pipe by the transverse moving clamping device so as to strip the coating part of the optical fiber. However, the patent adopts a saw blade to strip the coating layer, which still does not solve the problems that the optical fiber is directly broken or the fiber is broken in the cladding, and coating layer fragments still exist after fiber stripping.
Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new automatic laser fiber stripping apparatus to solve the above technical problems.
