The present invention provides a precision device molding machine and a molding method to make it possible for an adjustment of parallelism to be performed with a high degree of accuracy and excellent workability. The precision device molding machine includes a parallelism adjustment mechanism held by a supporting plate (3,7,8,8a,15), a pressure applying plate (1) that is movable up and down, a lower die (13b) disposed on the upper surface of the pressure applying plate and an upper die (13a) disposed on the parallelism adjustment mechanism, The parallelism adjustment mechanism includes a pressure receiving member (3,15), an adjusting plate (8,8a), a transmitting member (7,7a) disposed between the pressure receiving member and the adjusting plate, a fixed fulcrum (7) and an operating member (10,10a). By having the operating member (10,10a) manipulated, the adjusting plate (8,8a) is moved, the pressure receiving member (3,15) is slanted via the transmitting member (7,7a) with the fixed fulcrum (7) acting as a pivot and the gradient of the pressure receiving member (3,15) is adjusted, thereby allowing the parallelism between the upper die (13a) and the lower die (13b) to be adjusted and allowing a compound in a cavity formed with the molding die to be molded. Preferably, the adjusting plate has two adjusting plates (8,8a) and the respective adjusting plates are located on the apexes of a regular triangle and each respective adjusting plate (8,8a) has a slanting surface. <IMAGE> |
