Abstract
Improvement in a method for molding a plastic substrate for an optical disk having a concave-convex pattern on a side surface thereof including a step of feeding liquid resin into a molding cavity defined by a pair of mold halves, characterized in that, when the molded plastic substrate is released from the mold halves, the molded plastic substrate is released at least simultaneously in time from both of the mold halves in a mold-opening stage.
Claims1
A method for molding a plastic substrate for a high-density information recording optical disk having a concave-convex pattern of format signal and/or trucking grooves on a side surface thereof by injecting molten resin into a molding cavity defined by a pair of mold halves, a stamper being supported on a surface of one of the mold halves, characterized in that, when the molded plastic substrate is released from the mold halves the molded plastic substrate is released at a mold-opening stage, firstly in time from a side surface onto which said concave-convex pattern is transferred from a surface of said stamper and then is released from a mirror surface of opposite mold halves.
