1. Quality control of optical fiber: Optical fiber is the core part of fiber optic cable, and its quality is directly related to the performance of fiber optic cable. The manufacturing process needs to control the diameter, roundness, refractive index and other parameters of the fiber to ensure that the quality of the fiber meets the requirements.
2. Design and preparation of the cable core: the core is formed by bundling multiple optical fibers together, the manufacturing process needs to consider the protection, stretching and compression of the optical fiber to ensure the quality and performance of the cable core.
3. stranded wire and sheath selection: stranded wire and sheath are components used to enhance the mechanical strength and protective properties of fiber optic cable, and their materials and structures need to be selected and designed according to the application environment and requirements of fiber optic cable.
4. Optical cable appearance quality: The optical cable manufacturing process needs to pay attention to the optical cable appearance quality, such as the appearance of flatness, surface finish, cable core symmetry, etc., to ensure the aesthetics and quality of optical cable.
5. Testing and quality control: After the manufacturing is completed, the optical cable needs to be tested to ensure that the quality and performance of the cable meet the requirements. The testing process requires testing parameters such as attenuation, loss and bandwidth of the optical fiber, as well as the appearance quality and other indicators.
In general, the manufacturing process of fiber optic cable requires attention to several factors, among which the quality control of optical fiber, the design and preparation of the cable core and testing and quality control are very important.
