Glass lens molding is a high-volume fabrication method for producing optical components. In this paper, combined with the orthogonal test method and finite element method (FEM) simulation, the coupled thermo-mechanical analysis was carried out to analyze the key process factors. In order to reduce the testing time, an orthogonal test with three sets of level factors and three parameters is conducted to obtain the optimal molding process parameters. The result shows that the most significant parameter is molding velocity, the other effect parameters are molding temperature and friction coefficient. According to the previous analysis of orthogonal experiment, it is shown that the best optimal finishing process parameters were A2B1C1.

Glass lens molding process is a high-volume fabrication method for producing optical components. In this paper, combined with thermal-mechanical coupled analysis and finite element method (FEM) simulation, An axisymmetric model of the GMP is built. Based on this model, FEM on the basis of the commercial FEM software MSC.Marc is conducted to study the pressing process in glass molding. The effects of molding temperature, pressing velocity, and friction on maximum residual stress are calculated. The result shows that the stress decreases at the higher molding temperature, lower pressing velocity and friction.

Glass lens molding is an effective approach to produce precision micro aspheric glass lens at high efficiency. In this paper, a new two-step isothermal glass molding process was proposed. The mechanisms of new molding process were analyzed. Finite element simulation was conducted to analyze the key factors such as the pressing load, die damage, molding time and residual stress of lens during the traditional molding and the two-step isothermal molding. The results showed that the two-step isothermal glass lens molding process may decrease residual stress and improve stress and strain distribution. Furthermore, prolong the service life of die.
