Abstract

The demand of a camera-lens-module which is installed in mobile phone has been increased explosively as the increase of mobile phone market. Recently, two missions are given to the parts manufacturer of lens module, and they are how to keep the quality of injection moulding process as the increase of resolution, and how to decrease manufacturing cost. In this paper, a simulation study is introduced which is used for developing barrel and shield considering the double-cassette type of mould. At first, the simulation for injection process using Mold Flow$^{TM}$ is applied in the phase of mould design, and mechanical simulation using DPM Assembly$^{TM}$ is applied for collision detection between picking robot and mould. As a result, the productivity increased more than 300%.

휴대폰 시장의 확산으로 인하여 휴대폰에 장착되는 카메라 렌즈모듈의 수요도 급증하고 있다. 렌즈모듈 부품의 경우 해상도의 증가에 따른 사출공정의 품질보증과 원가절감이라는 두 가지 목표를 달성해야 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 더블카세트 방식의 금형구조를 이용하여 경통과 쉴드 두 종류의 제품을 개발하기 위해 시뮬레이션을 활용한 사례를 소개한다. 개발과정에서 두 종류의 시뮬레이션 기술을 활용하였는데, 첫 번째는 금형 설계단계에서 사출품의 성형성을 분석하기 위한 시뮬레이션(일명 Computer Aided Engineering)을 Mold Flow$^{TM}$를 사용하여 수행하였고, 두 번째는 사출기에 금형을 장착한 후 제품이 사출되어 취출하는 동작을 분석하기 위한 동작 시뮬레이션을 DPM Assembly$^{TM}$를 이용하여 수행하였다. 개발 결과 기존 방식에 비해 제품의 생산성이 300% 이상 증가하는 효과를 얻었다.
