る。2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, SUS420J2 of martensitic stainless steel has been widely used as a mold used for manufacturing plastic products such as CDs and DVDs requiring high dimensional accuracy by injection molding. S
US420J2 has sufficient mechanical strength and is excellent in machinability, so that it can be mirror-finished and has the conditions required for a plastic injection mold. When manufacturing an injection molding die, first, a cavity is formed by roughly processing a material made of SUS420J2, and then a cavity surface is formed by subjecting the surface of the cavity to mirror finishing. In addition, in order to enhance abrasion resistance and releasability, the mirror-finished cavity surface is further coated with TiN or the like.

上に効果がある。According to the injection mold of the present invention, the surface layer of the cavity of the mold is made of martensitic stainless steel having abrasion resistance and excellent machinability, and the base of the mold is formed. Since the material portion is made of carbon steel or alloy steel having a high thermal conductivity compared to the surface layer portion,
The cooling rate after the cavity is filled with the molten resin is higher than that of a conventional mold using only a single material of martensitic stainless steel. Therefore, after filling with the molten resin, the mold can be opened more quickly and the molded product can be taken out of the mold. As a result, the time per one cycle of the injection molding is reduced, which is effective in improving the productivity.

としては、1〜6mm程度が適当である。The thicknesses of the surface portions 3 and 4 are as follows.
The thinner the mold, the higher the cooling performance of the whole mold. However, if the thickness is too thin, the cooling performance is too high, and the internal stress of the molded article due to the thermal stress increases, which is not preferable because warpage occurs. Also,
When the molded product is a CD or a DVD, the birefringence increases as the internal stress increases, and the transferability of pits, which are information signals, also decreases. On the other hand, if the thickness of the surface layer is excessively increased, the effect of improving the cooling performance is reduced, so that the effect of shortening the cycle time does not appear. Therefore, the thickness of the surface layer is suitably about 1 to 6 mm.

Since it is composed of a material having a high thermal conductivity as compared to the surface layer portion, the cooling rate after filling the molten resin is lower than that in a case where a mold composed of only a conventional single material is used. Therefore, after the molten resin is filled, the mold can be opened more quickly and the molded product can be taken out of the mold.
As a result, the time per one cycle of the injection molding is reduced, which is effective in improving the productivity.
