  • Patent number: 4579022
    Abstract: The invention provides a novel method for manufacturing a knife-edge die for stamping out a metal foil on an insulating base plate such as in the preparation of an electronic circuit board by a technique of photoetching. The method comprises a line pattern of a photoresist film on the die face corresponding to the contour of the desired pattern, subjecting the die face to a first etching to effect substantial side etching behind the photoresist film to leave an edge, removing the photoresist film and subjecting the die face to a second etching to sharpen the edge into a knife edge.
