Abstract

Abstract Residual stress negatively affects the quality of optical products and is a difficult problem to solve. Regulating process parameters is a critical element in quality control. Therefore, the online monitoring of critical process variables is necessary for stabilizing product quality and reducing manufacturing cost. This study proposes a method for the online monitoring of residual stress near the gate of a mold using multiple pressure sensors to measure process variables and verifies the feasibility of online monitoring. The study found that residual stress near the gate could not be accurately measured with only a single sensor because measurements were susceptible to interference with process parameters. When a single sensor was used to measure process variables, correlation coefficients of between 0.48 and 0.59 were obtained, and when multiple sensors were used, correlation coefficients of between 0.80 and 0.92 were obtained, which indicated strong correlation. Therefore, the online monitoring of residual stress near the gate is feasible. This monitoring method can provide a new concept of online monitoring technology for the injection molding of optical products.
