METHOD OF SURFACE MACHINING FOR SUBSTRATE OF ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC PHOTORECEPTOR

摘要

In machining a substrate surface of a photoreceptor by the use of a cutting machine which supplies cutting lubricant from a reservoir to a cutting tool of the cutting machine, the method comprises a measurement of a cutting tool temperature by a sensor and a control of both the temperature of cutting lubricant and a flow rate thereof. The control is responsive to the cutting tool temperature and suppresses a temperature fluctuation of the cutting tool.
