Abstract
In the past, precision optical glass lenses were produced through multiple processes such as grinding and polishing, but mass production of aspheric glass lenses requiring high accuracy and having complex profile was rather difficult. In such a background, the high-precision optical glass molding pressing (GMP) process was developed with an eye to mass production of precision optical glass parts by molding press. In this paper, as a fundamental research to develop the multi-cavity mold for higher productivity of a progressive GMP process used in the fabrication of an aspheric glass lens, an aspheric glass lens forming simulation was carried out.
