Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of inductors, and more specifically, it relates to a method for manufacturing an inductor. Background Art

[0002] As one of the three passive electronic basic components in the circuit board of electronic products, inductors are widely used in fields such as communication, industrial equipment, automobiles, new energy, and the Internet of Things. With the rapid change of the market and the large-scale construction of related industries such as the Internet of Things and smart cities, the market scale of inductors has developed rapidly. To meet the above application requirements, the development trend of inductors presents characteristics such as miniaturization, high performance, and high power. However, there are some technical problems in the manufacturing process of existing integrated inductors.

[0003] For example, Patent Document CN116313347B describes a method for manufacturing an inductor using a composite material of carbonyl iron powder and amorphous powder. However, in this method, the cold-pressed T-Core has insufficient strength, resulting in product breakage during winding. To solve this problem, baking is required after cold pressing in the process, but this leads to a reduction in the hot pressing compression amount and the characteristics of the inductor cannot be fully exerted. During the winding process, limited by the strength of the T-Core, the tension and hot air cannot be adjusted too much, resulting in poor bonding of the coil self-adhesive layer and there is a quality risk. During the hot pressing forming process, since large-tonnage equipment is required, the copper wire after winding is easily deformed, further affecting the product quality. During the hot pressing powder filling process, the powder filling on the side wall is uneven, resulting in large fluctuations in the inductor value and unable to ensure the consistency of the product.

[0004] Another patent document CN117153548A describes a method for manufacturing an integrated inductor product, which uses precision mechanical equipment for coil manufacturing and lead wire cutting, and the precise implantation and forming of T-CORE and U-CORE. Although the production efficiency and consistency are improved, there are still some deficiencies. During the cold pressing forming process, the problems of insufficient strength of T-Core and U-Core and uneven powder filling still exist. In addition, the complex mechanical equipment and multi-step processes in this method increase the production cost and process difficulty.

[0005] Therefore, there is a need for a new set of inductor manufacturing processes to avoid the many deficiencies of the existing technology. Summary of the Invention

[0076] On the basis of the steps in Example 1, an additional baking step for the I-Core and 0-Core is added, with the baking temperature being 120°C and the baking time being 1 hour.

[0077] Comparative Example 2:

[0078] On the basis of the steps in Example 1, an additional baking step for the I-Core and 0-Core is added, with the baking temperature being 130°C and the baking time being 1.5 hours.

[0079] Comparative Example 3:

[0080] On the basis of the steps in Example 1, an additional baking step for the I-Core and 0-Core is added, with the baking temperature being 140°C and the baking time being 2 hours.

[0081] Carry out relevant performance tests on the inductors of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 for reference.

[0082] The method for detecting the performance of an inductor is as follows:

[0083] Inductance value: Connect the inductor to the test port of an LCR meter, set the test frequency (usually 100 kHz), record the displayed inductance value, and repeat the test 3 times and take the average. The measurement accuracy requirement for the inductance value is ±0.1 μH.

[0084] Resistance: Connect the inductor to the test port of a micro-ohmmeter, set the test current (usually 1 A), record the displayed resistance value, and repeat the test 3 times and take the average. The measurement accuracy requirement for the resistance is ±0.1 mΩ.

[0085] Q value: Connect the inductor to the test port of a Q-value tester, set the test frequency (usually 100 kHz), record the displayed Q value, and repeat the test 3 times and take the average. The higher the Q value, the better the performance of the inductor.

[0086] Current-carrying capacity: Connect the inductor in series between a DC power supply and an ammeter, gradually increase the current until the inductor reaches the limit temperature rise, and record the current value at this time. The current-carrying capacity indicates the maximum current that the inductor can withstand without exceeding the specified temperature rise.

[0087] Dimensional stability: Use a microscope to measure the initial dimensions of the inductor after production, place the inductor under specified environmental conditions (such as high temperature, high humidity, etc.) for an aging test (for example, 1000 hours), and measure the dimensional change of the inductor again. The dimensional stability indicates the dimensional change of the inductor during use, and the smaller the change, the better.

[0088] Mechanical strength:

[0089] Place the inductor on the test platform of a material testing machine, gradually increase the pressure until the inductor undergoes structural damage, and record the pressure value at this time. The mechanical strength indicates the anti-mechanical shock ability of the inductor, and the larger the value, the better.

[0090] In summary: In Examples 1-3 without the baking process flow, the inductor is significantly superior to Comparative Examples 1-3 in terms of inductance value stability, resistance, Q value, current-carrying capacity, dimensional stability, mechanical strength, and surface insulation resistance, etc.
