RESIN FORMING APPARATUS AND RESIN FORMING METHOD

摘要

A resin forming apparatus (1) has a forming die (6) composed of a rubber, a light source (2) which emits light including a wavelength region of 0.78-2µm, and a reflector (3) composed of many reflecting surfaces (31).  In the resin forming apparatus (1), at the time of distributing light to a target irradiation position (G) by fixing the light source (2) and the reflector (3), the light source (2) and the reflector (3) are integrally rotated and an irradiation range (E) is changed in a manner of drawing a circle with respect to the center of the target irradiation position (G), where the irradiation range (E) is the range where the reflection center axis line of light reflected by each reflecting surface (31) reaches the target irradiation position (G), and a thermoplastic resin (8) in the forming die (6) is heated.
