摘要:
A workpiece (23) formed of a circular thin plate is rotated about its center as an axis (L1). Each of disk-shaped rotating grinding wheels (27) and (28), while being rotated about an axis (L3) extending in a direction substantially parallel to the plane of the workpiece (23) and perpendicular to the radial direction of the workpiece (23), is made to undergo relative feeding movement on both obverse and reverse surface sides of the workpiece (23) along an outer peripheral edge portion (23a) of the workpiece (23). Consequently, the outer peripheral edge portion (23a) of the workpiece (23) is ground by an outer peripheral surface of each of the rotating grinding wheels (27) and (28). In this case, it is preferred that two grinding wheels (27) and (28) for rough grinding and finish grinding be provided as the disk-shaped rotating grinding wheels, and that rough grinding and finish grinding are performed by the same station.
摘要:
A workpiece receiving hole 60a for fittingly receiving a workpiece 17 is formed in the center of a rotary disk 60 which is thinner than the workpiece 17. A workpiece drive section 60b which engages a notch 17a formed for the purpose of orienting the workpiece 17 relative to crystal orientation is formed along the brim of the hole 60a. A gear 59 is rotated by a gear 62 of a motor 61, thereby rotating the rotary disk 60 and imparting torque to the workpiece 17. Accordingly, both surfaces of the workpiece are ground by means of a double disc surface grinder.
