A cutting apparatus includes a cassette table on which a first cassette in which a frame unit, ring-shaped frame and wafer are housed, and a second cassette in which a simple wafer is housed. A first conveying unit having a first frame holding part holds the ring-shaped frame of the frame unit withdrawn from the first cassette and conveys the frame unit to a chuck table. A first wafer holding part holds the simple wafer withdrawn from the second cassette and conveys the simple wafer to the chuck table. A cutting unit cuts the wafer, and a second conveying unit conveys the frame unit from the chuck table to a cleaning unit. A second wafer holding part holds the cut simple wafer and conveys it from the chuck table to the cleaning unit.

A workpiece processing device includes a workpiece supporting unit configured to support a workpiece so that the workpiece is rotatable around a first axis parallel to a central axis of the workpiece, a cutting unit having a blade configured to cut a surface of the workpiece, a detecting unit configured to calculate a position of a vertex of the surface in a direction along a second axis which is perpendicular to the first axis and parallel to the blade, and a control unit configured to control the workpiece supporting unit so that a cutting position on the surface is located at a vertex in the direction along the second axis, and relatively move the workpiece supporting unit and the cutting unit so that an incision direction of the blade is on a plane defined by the central axis and the cutting position, thereby forming a groove at the cutting position.

A method for producing a rotor of a screw compressor or a workpiece with a helical profile, the rotor or the workpiece with a helical profile having a number of profiles in the form of groove-shaped recesses running in a spiral manner on the outer periphery thereof, the groove-shaped recesses being fine-machined using a grinding tool for the purpose of generating a precise profile. To be able to produce rotors and workpieces having variable pitch along the axial extent of the rotor or the workpiece as precisely as possible, the groove-shaped recesses are fine-machined with a grinding tool which only touches the surface of the groove-shaped recess at one point during the grinding process. The entire surface to be machined is machined by the grinding tool through line-by-line traversing of the surface to be machined.
