High Speed Fiber Drawing: A Resin’s Point of View
Speaker: Arjen Bogaerds, Senior Scientist, DSM Functional Materials (Geleen, The Netherlands)

Abstract:

We have performed the numerical analysis of the resin application in the draw tower process with the goal of increasing production speed.  It is shown that this analysis assists in understanding the influence of process and resin parameter variation on process stability and robustness.  In addition, from a practical point of view, it directly provides guidelines for process development necessary for high speed drawing.
