Description
Contact lens forming die Technical Field The invention relates to the technical field of contact lens production and manufacturing, in particular to a contact lens forming die. Background Currently, molding (casting) is one of the main processes for producing contact lenses. The technology utilizes a precise metal mold to manufacture a male mold and a female mold, and molds are closed and solidified after liquid monomer is injected. In actual production, in order to ensure the tightness and position accuracy of mold clamping, a rigid hard mold clamping method is generally adopted. However, as shown in the publication CN216860464U, the conventional mold is provided with a thickness stop to prevent deformation of the cutting position, but the rigid impact force is still large at the moment of mold closing. The impact force easily causes tiny deformation of the precise die core, so that the problems of curvature deviation, uneven center thickness, poor edge cutting and the like of the optical surface of the lens are caused, and the optical quality and the yield of the lens are affected. In addition, the flash groove of current mould is mostly fixed knot constructs, and the flash after the solidification is adhesion easily, leads to the drawing of patterns difficulty, has influenced production efficiency. Disclosure of Invention The invention aims to provide a contact lens forming die, which solves the problems that die core deformation is easy to cause by die closing impact and flash demolding is difficult in the background art.
