Problems solved by technology

Optical fiber can be used for on-line detection of temperature and strain after engraving grating. However, optical fiber is soft and vulnerable to high temperature and high pressure environment during product injection molding. In addition, the melt injected during injection molding has certain fluidity and will wash away the sensor. , making it difficult to locate the sensor in the product, therefore, it is a technical challenge to implant a fiber grating sensor in an injection molded product

Abstract

The invention discloses a fiber grating sensor insert for injection molding product detection and a manufacturing method thereof. The insert comprises a temperature fiber grating, a strain fiber grating, grating encapsulators, protection layers and connectors; the temperature fiber grating and the strain fiber grating are arranged side by side, the temperature fiber grating comprises a plurality of conducting fibers and a plurality of grating unit zones, the strain fiber grating comprises a plurality of conducting fibers and a plurality of grating unit zones, the conducting fibers and the grating unit zones are disposed at intervals, the grating encapsulators protecting the grating unit zones are disposed on the temperature fiber grating and the strain fiber grating, the protection layers wrap the conducting fibers, and ends of the temperature fiber grating and the strain fiber grating are provided with the connectors. The insert can be conveniently and reliably implanted in a product injection molding process, so a temperature sensor and a strain sensor are buried in a product, the sensors can be positioned, and the sensors can be guaranteed to be live in a high-temperature and high-voltage condition of injection molding; and the sensors are seamlessly embedded into the product, so measurement accuracy and the service lives of the sensor can be substantially improved.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fiber grating sensor insert for injection molding product detection and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] The injection molding process is to inject molten plastic or plastic-based composite material into a mold under pressure, and obtain various products after cooling and molding. Injection molding, also known as injection molding, has the advantage of high production efficiency and can produce products of various shapes. The resulting product is often the final product, and no other processing is required before installation or use as the final product. Many details of the product, such as protrusions, ribs, and threads, can be formed in one step of injection molding. [0003] Industrial sensors are one of the key technical means to realize the intelligentization of the manufacturing industry. In modern industrial production, especially in the automated production process, various intelligent sensors ...
