Abstract
A mold for injection molding thin discs for DVD has a cavity (C) bounded by a information-bearing stamper (29) surface, a mirror plate (31) opposite to the stamper surface, and the tip (33s) of an inserting block (33) at a central opening in the mirror plate. The tip surface (33s) protrudes into the cavity past the surface of the mirror plate between 10 .mu.m and 70 .mu.m. The mirror plate molding surface is slightly frusto-conical, with a gradient Y/R gradually increasing the depth of the cavity toward the periphery. R is approximately 40 mm and Y lies in the range of 5 .mu.m and 30 .mu.m. The mirror plate is preferably manufactured flat on the surface facing the mold, but bolted down onto a frusto-conical backing plate or on top of a central ring, so that it is stressed into the desired shallow cone shape. The invention includes a method of injecting resin with lower clamping force of about 2 tons and then applying a higher force of about 17 tons.
