Welding Lathe Glass Processing Lathe for Fiber Preform Production Line

Fiber optic preform post processing lathe equipment
There are various types of commonly used post processing lathes for prefabricated rods. But the main ones used to match the manufacturing process of prefabricated rods are welding lathes, cutting lathes, and polishing lathes for surface treatment of prefabricated rods.

The welding lathe can melt and soften the joints that need to be welded by high-temperature flames. While ensuring concentricity and curvature of two quartz glass rods of different sizes, and press them together. After the docking part cools down, the welding work of the two is completed. The welding lathe equipment mainly consists of a clamping and rotating mechanism. It also consist a lamp head, a frame, a control system, and other parts.

Function of Welding Lathe Glass Processing Lathe:

During the manufacturing process of fiber optic preforms, a complex process of core rod deposition, sintering, stretching, and subsequent outer layer manufacturing is required. In this process, it is necessary to match the manufacturing equipment of these core rods at different stages. At the same time, during the manufacturing process, there are local problems with some products. And it is necessary to cut off the problematic parts of semi-finished or finished bars. Therefore, welding glass processing lathes are used to assist in the entire manufacturing process of prefabricated bars.
Before using fiber optic preforms for wire drawing production, it is also necessary to use a glass processing lathe for processing. In the previous section, the function of using acid washing equipment to clean prefabricated rods. Which can also be achieved by using a glass processing lathe to treat the surface of prefabricated rods to the same effect.
