Due to communication and Internet are so popular, light communication will become an efficient way of message transfer in the next generation. Backbone Architecture to the User will be the future trend for researches such as: Fiber to the Home and Fiber to the Desk. However, problems of construction difficulties and overspend prime cost are challenges that have to be overcome. Currently, optical fiber connector has become an important component that connects, divorces or reconnects the fiber, light source, light sensor and the other fiber ferrule connector. Nowadays, the wide use of small form factor fiber connector is foreseeable, while in the future it will be accepted in many fields. The tiny key component of MT-RJ connector, Ferrule, will be studied in this paper. Besides, how to reduce prime cost and increase precision will be a huge obstacle that has to be conquered.
This paper integrates CAE softwares, C-MOLD and ANSYS, to predict the core-pin deformation that may occur during fiber ferrule connector molding. Furthermore, Taguchi method is used to optimize the deformation.
To simulate the flow behavior while plastic material was injected into mold, the CAE softwares – 3D Moldflow Plastics Insight (MPI) and ANSYS will be integrated in this paper to study the molding of MT-RJ optical fiber ferrule. Besides, the deformation of core pin will be predicted and discussed while gating in different position.
Keywords：Optical Fiber Connector, Ferrule, Core Pin, ANSYS, C-MOLD, MPI, Taguchi Method, 3-D Mold-Flow Simulation
