PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a manufacturing method of a semiconductor wafer making a processing damage of a chamfered part of the semiconductor wafer uniform. SOLUTION: At the time of finishing chamfering, a chamfering is carried out such that a chamfering processing direction of the silicon wafer W is perpendicular to a chamfering processing direction at the time of primary chamfering. As a result, a polishing streak to a circumferential direction of the wafer generated on the chamfered surface at the time of the primary chamfering is removed by the finishing chamfering. During the finishing chamfering, the wafer W and a finishing chamfering grinding wheel 20 are not intruded into a groove of a grinding wheel as a conventional method. Accordingly, even if an impact force during chamfering is applied to the finishing chamfering grinding wheel 20, the chamfering grinding wheel 20 outwardly escapes within a predetermined permission range. As a result, an impact at the time of contact of a polishing applying surface of the chamfering grinding wheel 20 with the chamfering surface of the wafer W becomes small, a generation of polishing streak is inhibited and a damage of the chamfered part is made uniform.
