Abstract

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de moulage d'un produit optique, par lequel il est possible d'éviter la production de bavures tout en évitant la déformation d'une face de transfert optique. L'invention concerne un dispositif de moulage (100) muni d'une filière de moulage (40) incluant un noyau coulissant (72), un capteur de pression de contact (54) pour mesurer la pression de contact sur une face de travail (72p) du noyau coulissant (72), une pièce conférant la pression au moule (59) pour ajuster la position du noyau coulissant (72), et une pièce de régulation de la pression du moule (33). Après la fermeture du moule, la pièce de régulation de la pression du moule (33) ajuste la position du noyau coulissant (72) à travers l'utilisation d'un premier actionneur (52) sur la base de la sortie du capteur de pression de contact (54), et il est par conséquent possible d'empêcher une face intérieure (72a), qui est une face de transfert optique, de se déformer par pression de contact excessive résultant de la butée du noyau coulissant (72), et d'empêcher la dégradation d'un MR miroir qui est la face optique d'un produit optique OP. En outre, du fait que le contact avec la face de travail (72p) du noyau coulissant (72) est assuré, il est possible d'éviter la formation de bavures par intrusion de résine dans un espace GA de la face de travail (72p).
