Injection-moulding tool for the production of information carriers in disc form

Abstract

An injection-moulding tool (10) for the production of mouldings in disc form, in particular in the form of information carriers such as CDs and/or DVDs, which injection-moulding tool (10), to form an injection mould (25), includes a first and a second mirror block (11 and 12, respectively), which lie opposite each other and are movable in relation to each other for the opening and closing of the mould, and also a form ring (20), which concentrically encloses the first mirror block (11) and closes off the injection mould (25) towards the outer edge and is movable in relation to the first mirror block (11), better process stability, better quality of the mouldings and shorter waiting times during starting-up are achieved, inter alia, by facilities for active temperature control of the form ring (20) being provided.
