Abstract
A lens holder of a stacked lens module and a manufacturing method thereof are revealed. A stacked lens submodule is used as a molded molding insert to be set into a mold cavity. The molding insert is aligned in the alignment fixture and the clamp of the mold by injection molding or press molding. After molding process, a lens module included the stacked lens submodule as well as the lens holder is formed. Thereby the manufacturing method of conventional lens assemblies or lens modules is improved. Moreover, the processes are simplified and the yield rate is increased. Furthermore, the molded lens module is packed into the lens more easily so that it is suitable to be applied to camera lenses, small lenses and mobile phone lenses.
