Resin molding machine and method of resin molding

A resin molding machine, comprising:

• a lower die on which a work piece to be molded is set;
• an upper die clamping the work piece with said lower die;
• a release film feeding mechanism feeding release film, which is easily peelable from said upper die and resin for molding, so as to cover the resin molding space;
• a clamper being provided to said upper die, said clamper enclosing a resin molding space of said upper die, said clamper being capable of vertically moving in said upper die and always biased downward;
• and
• a release film sucking mechanism, which fixes the release film on a lower end face of said clamper by air suction and which fixes the release film on an inner face of the resin molding space, which is constituted by the resin molding face of said upper die and an inner face of said clamper, by sucking air from a ceiling face of the resin molding space,
• wherein a lower end of said clamper is downwardly projected from a resin molding face of said upper die when said lower die and upper die are opened,
• said clamper is capable of contacting an upper face of the work piece, which is set in said lower die, with the release film and closing the resin molding space, and
• the resin is liquid resin or paste resin.
