A screw rotor for use in a hydraulic machine which has a pair of rotors engageable with each other to compress fluid, pump fluid or expand fluid, and a method of manufacturing such a screw rotor. The screw rotor comprises a shaft, a screw body including a number of stacked thin plates bonded with one another, and a cavity provided in the screw body and formed by openings of the stacked thin plates. The method of manufacturing a screw rotor comprises the steps of preparing a number of thin plates having at least one opening, stacking the thin plates in such a manner that a through hole of the thin plate receives a shaft, filling a cavity formed by the openings of the stacked thin plates with powdery pressure medium, and bonding the stacked thin plates with one another by diffusion bonding under a hot isostatic pressing process.
