MANUFACTURING METHOD AND MANUFACTURING APPARATUS OF SHAPED ARTICLE

摘要

There is provided a method of manufacturing a shaped article having a plurality of lens sections arranged one-dimensionally or two-dimensionally and a substrate section connecting the lens sections, the lens sections and the substrate section being integrally made of a resin material. The resin material is cured between a transfer surface of a first mold, which is fit to one side surface of the shaped article, and a transfer surface of a second mold which is fit to an opposite side surface of the shaped article. A space between the transfer surface of the first mold and the transfer surface of the second mold is narrowed in accordance with contraction of the resin material caused by the curing, and the transfer surface of the first mold and the transfer surface of the second mold are kept in tight contact with the resin material.
