Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and equipment for manufacturing an optical fiber preform, and relates to the field of optical fiber preform manufacturing. Specifically, it is a method and equipment for collecting the surface temperature of a powder rod head using infrared thermal imaging technology and participating in the control of gas flow. The method can be used to adjust the gas flow rate in real time, so as to realize the precise control of the powder rod density, prevent the powder rod from cracking due to the large density gradient, and improve the product quality. Background technique [0002] At present, the flow rate of the gas used in the axial vapor deposition method is mainly controlled by a mass flow controller (MFC for short). MFC controls the flow rate by pre-setting several stages and assigning a constant flow rate to each stage. During the deposition process of powder rods, the gas is supplied according to the preset flow rate. Th...
