Abstract: In an embodiment, a rotatable mold apparatus includes a first mold disposed on a first base structure to be integrally moved together with the first base structure, a second mold disposed on a second base structure to be integrally moved together with the second base structure in order to couple to or decoupled from the first mold, a drive device configured to rotate the first mold and the second mold together when the first mold and the second mold are coupled to each other and support devices rotatably supporting the first mold and the second mold on the first base structure and the second base structure, respectively.

Abstract: Disclosed are a porous electroformed shell for forming a grain pattern and a manufacturing method thereof. The method includes the step of causing an epoxy mandrel to be conductive by formation of a conductive thin film thereon; transferring a non-conductive masking pattern on the conductive thin film by using a masking film; generating and growing a fine pore at the position of the non-conductive masking pattern through electroforming; and demolding an electrodeposited layer having the fine pore from the epoxy mandrel, Through the disclosed method, precise control, both as a whole or in part, on a diameter, a formation position, and a density of a fine pore can be simply, economically, and efficiently can be carried out according to various curved shapes of the electroformed shell.
