Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus which enables a continuous treatment by arranging, between a casting molding step and a processing step, a treatment technique for improving durability of a graphite spherical cast-iron article used in a mechanical element of an apparatus in a part in contact with an element of another apparatus which receives high resistance, pressure and/or load, e.g. the cam lobe surface of a cam shaft of a vehicle.SOLUTION: An austempering treatment technique comprises austenitizing the matrix of the surface of a cam lobe 3 temporarily by subjecting a cast-iron cam shaft to a partial austempering treatment and then converting the austenite to a bainite to minimize residual austenite so as to form such a cam surface that withstands high stress applied to the cast-iron surface and has high resistance to wear due to periodic stress. An apparatus which applies the austempering treatment technique to selected parts of a cast-iron cam shaft and allows a continuous treatment is also provided.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a machining method using a fixed abrasive wire saw, configured to properly control wire tension at a cutting position in cutting a workpiece using the fixed abrasive wire saw, and to provide a wafer manufactured in the machining method.SOLUTION: In the fixed abrasive wire saw 1, a wire row 20 formed by winding one fixed abrasive wire 10 on main rollers 18A, 18B multiple turns at a fixed pitch reciprocates in the longitudinal direction, and the workpiece 50 is pushed against the reciprocating wire row 20 so as to be cut at a plurality of positions simultaneously to form a plurality of wafers. The travelling direction is reversed when a travel distance of a wire portion located at a preset reference position on the wire pay-out side becomes equal to or larger than the length of the wire wound on the main rollers 18A, 18B.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cutting device and a method of manufacturing a substrate, facilitating manufacture of the substrate with small waviness, and a semiconductor wafer.SOLUTION: In a wire saw 100, a wire 20 is wound across a pair of rollers 10 to constitute a wire train 21, and, under a condition in which the wire train 21 is moved between the pair of rollers 10, an ingot 1 is pressed against the wire train 21 for cutting the ingot 1. The wire saw includes an auxiliary roller 60. The auxiliary roller 60, under a condition in which no load is applied from the ingot 1 to the wire train 21, is caused to abut with the wire train 21 to increase tension thereof.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a semiconductor ingot cutting method and a fixed abrasive grain wire saw which are suitable for improving efficiency in cutting a semiconductor ingot while using a fixed abrasive grain wire saw.SOLUTION: A wire row 20 is configured by winding and hanging a fixed abrasive grain wire 10 around main rollers 18A, 18B several times. The wire row is made to travel in its longitudinal direction and a semiconductor ingot 50 is pressed against the traveling wire row 20 to be processed into a plurality of wafers by simultaneously cutting the semiconductor ingot 50 at several locations. The wire row is configured to set a wire traveling speed Vw when cutting the semiconductor ingot to a speed within a range of 100[m/min]
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a grinding wheel capable of preventing generation of sagging of an outer peripheral part with a simple structure and a grinding device using the grinding wheel. SOLUTION: This circular annular shaped grinding wheel 1 has a grinding surface 2 for grinding an object to be ground on one side. Grinding area abutting on the object to be ground in an inner peripheral part 4 of the grinding surface 2 is narrower than grinding area in the outer peripheral part 5 of the grinding surface 2. As a result, workload per unit area in the inner peripheral part 4 is increased, and thereby when the grinding wheel 1 is applied to a double head plane grinding device, wear of the outer peripheral part 5 and the inner peripheral part 4 can be made uniform.
