MOLDED GLASS SUBSTRATE FOR MAGNETIC DISK AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME

摘要

A method for manufacturing a glass substrate for a magnetic disk involving press-molding a heated glass material in an inside space of a molding die comprising a pair of dies, each having a predetermined processing plane, and a barrel die for slidably guiding the dies while forming an outer circumference of the glass material joined to both principal surfaces corresponding to the dies as a molding-free face, cooling the press-molded glass substrate and forming a predetermined through-hole in a central portion of the glass substrate.
