Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature; in the description of this invention, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" or "several" means two or more.

[0042] See Figures 1 to 11 This invention provides a bar testing device, comprising:

[0043] Bar test stand 2, on which a bar clamp 21 is fixedly installed, the bar clamp 21 being configured to fix the bar 10;

[0044] Two displacement stages 3 are respectively set on both sides of the bar test stage 2. Material clamps 7 are fixedly mounted on each displacement stage 3. The material clamps 7 are configured to hold materials, and the displacement stages 3 are configured to drive the material clamps 7 to move. The type of material clamp 7 must match the material to be coupled in the test scenario.

[0045] A vision mechanism is used to acquire images of the area of ​​the Bar test bench 2 and transmit them to the control system;

[0046] The control system is used to identify the relative positional deviation between the center position of each channel of the Bar bar and the alignment reference point of the materials on both sides based on the image recognition of the Bar bar test platform 2 area, and send adjustment instructions to the displacement platform 3 according to the deviation, control the displacement platform 3 to drive the material clamp 7 to move, so that the test channel of the Bar bar is aligned with the materials on both sides.

[0047] In some embodiments, the displacement stage 3 may be a six-axis displacement stage.

[0048] In some embodiments, the vision mechanism is fixedly installed above or to the side of the Bar test platform 2, and its field of view completely covers the test area of ​​the Bar test platform 2 (including the alignment area of ​​the Bar and the material clamps 7 on both sides); the vision mechanism is configured to acquire high-definition images of the Bar and the materials on both sides in real time and transmit the image data to the control system in real time; the control system has built-in image recognition algorithms (such as edge detection, template matching, feature point extraction) to process the received images, identify and calculate the relative positional deviation (including X-axis lateral deviation, Y-axis longitudinal deviation, and angle deviation around the Z-axis) between the center position of each light-emitting channel of the Bar and the alignment reference point of the materials on both sides; the control system generates corresponding motion control commands based on the calculated positional deviation values ​​and sends them to the electric displacement stages 3 on both sides; the electric displacement stages 3 drive the material clamps 7 to perform a composite motion of XYZ three-axis translation + rotation around the Z-axis until the materials on both sides of the Bar are precisely aligned with the test channels of the Bar, and the displacement stage 3 is locked after the deviation value drops to a preset threshold.

[0049] Bar testing is used to test whether the photoelectric performance parameters of each light-emitting channel of the bar are qualified. By precisely coupling each channel to the optical fiber / PD device, the optical signal parameters (such as transmittance) after coupling are collected to evaluate the light emission effectiveness and consistency of the channel.

[0050] This solution uses high-definition image acquisition by a vision mechanism and precise algorithm recognition to directly quantify and calculate the positional deviation between the bar channel and the material. Combined with the high-precision motion adjustment of the electric displacement stage 3, it significantly improves the consistency and accuracy of multi-channel alignment.
