Description

Technical Field

[0002] In the laser device production process, connecting and assembling each component is a critical step. To achieve rapid and automated assembly of semiconductor laser devices, placement is crucial for ease of commissioning. Therefore, automated device installation is essential, making the laser device assembly process more energy-efficient and efficient.

[0003] In the existing traditional process, 1. The convex lens needs to be manually installed to the bottom of the straight aluminum shell with a suction pen; 2. The gasket is then inserted using a clamp; 3. The concave lens is then inserted using a suction pen; 4. Finally, the rubber plug is inserted using a stopper rod. The disadvantages of this process are that, during the manufacturing process, a separate person is required to assemble the lenses and the production capacity is low. A single person can assemble about 1,200 lenses per shift, which wastes manpower and increases costs. Second, personnel frequently perform the same action, which can easily lead to material shortages and excess materials, resulting in material scrap and increased costs. Third, during the manual assembly process, the lenses are in contact with the air for a long time, which can easily cause the lenses to become dirty and lead to material scrap.

[0004] The present invention provides a core component of a laser with a simple and compact structure and easy operation. It quickly and efficiently combines a straight-line aluminum shell, a concave lens, a convex lens, a gasket, and a rubber plug into one. This automatic lens assembly machine is an important component of the automated production of laser devices, and is used to replace manual labor, improve work efficiency, and increase the yield of products during work.
