ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for the preparation of optical ferrules containing cylindrical members is disclosed. The apparatus utilizes guide means receiving the cylindrical member, a sleeve receiving a piston therethrough, and a pin extending into the sleeve. The apparatus also includes biasing means to position the piston, fill gates to dispense polymer into a defined cavity, and containment means which secure the apparatus components together. Injection molded optical fiber ferrules made according to the apparatus and process disclosed exhibit superior properties.
