ABSTRACT:
A method for manufacturing a fluid bearing of dynamic pressure type by processing an inner peripheral surface of a sleeve bore to form a dynamic pressure-generating groove. An apparatus includes a guide shaft for being coaxially inserted into the sleeve bore while being rotated and fed axially. The shaft has first and second guide holes, and a plurality of balls held in the first and second guide holes. The balls are harder than the sleeve. Also, a diameter of a circumscribed circle about the balls is set to be larger than an inner diameter of the bore of the sleeve.
