スライダとする工程となる。As shown in Fig. 1, this consists of a zero-shaped core 1 made of ferrite, a flat slider 2, and a crow 4 that forms a magnetic gap 3 between them. It is manufactured by the method shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. That is, after a first core block 5 having a C-shaped cross section and a second core block 6 having a flat plate shape are joined and integrated using a crow 4, the first core block 5 is cut to have a predetermined core width. Then, the surface facing the magnetic disk is lapped to make it smooth, and a groove 7 is formed on this surface to improve the floating property, and a tapered part 8 is formed by lapping. This is the process of slicing the chip into predetermined dimensions to form a core slider.

すくなる。[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, in such a conventional magnetic core slider, ferrite particles on the surface layer easily fall off, and these fallen particles adhere to the magnetic disk, which is a magnetic storage medium.
The magnetic head collides with these fallen particles and destroys the magnetic layer on the surface of the disk, which is likely to occur.

れることム゛とか考えられた。The reason for this falling-off phenomenon is that ferrite is a molded product produced by heating and shrinking the ferrite powder as feed, and these mechanical treatments sometimes result in a considerable amount of particles. It is thought that the neighboring particles are in a state where they are likely to fall off, and that this tendency to fall off is accelerated by the presence of moisture in the air and residual stress distortion near the surface layer. It was done.

から存在した欠陥か大きく成長し、本来の破壊強度より
はるかに低い荷重(応力)で破壊が起きるものである。As a test method for accelerating grain shedding, a high temperature and high humidity resistance test was carried out at a temperature of 40 to 80°C and a humidity of 50% or higher for a given time of 5 to 1.
0001-1 Dropout 1 for samples with 4i settings and pre-processing set to r conditions. When the number of grains was measured, it was found that ferrite grain shedding occurs continuously for a long time in tests under these conditions. In addition, regardless of their size, the dropped microscopic chips are scattered at a distance from the core slider body, and many plastic flow surfaces due to machining are found in scanning electron microscopy observations of dropped chips. . All of these events indicate that grains shed as stress is released over time and microcracks develop, and this phenomenon is a typical example of time-delayed fracture or static fatigue fracture. It is estimated that What is static fatigue failure?
If loads are applied slowly, or if loads below the level required for instantaneous failure are applied for long periods of time, any defects that were originally present in the feed may grow larger and cause loads that are much lower than their original failure strength ( Destruction occurs due to stress).

さ■ると考えられる。In such static fatigue fracture, defects may develop due to chemical action, mechanical action, thermal action, etc. Applying this mechanism to the case of Aslig, microcracks that are difficult to predict and control occur on the ferrite surface layer due to processing such as cutting, resulting in growth of 4' due to residual stress. I1ro. In the high-temperature 1° high-humidity test, water acts on the chemically reactive surface of the tip of the microphone, causing hydrolysis that breaks the Fe-0-Fe bond in J-light. It is thought that this will cause a reaction and further develop the microphone.

It is preferable to perform mirror polishing on most of the surface of the core slider.

程がさらに単純化される。In other words, mirror polishing is usually applied only to the part other than the groove on the surface facing the magnetic disk, and such processing is applied to the inner surface of the slider groove, the side surface of the slider, and the outer surface of the 0-shaped core. has not been carried out. The present invention is designed to perform mirror finishing treatment on such locations using various means. One concrete way to do this is, for example, to smooth the bottom surface of the slider, grind it with a whetstone and then finish it.
All you have to do is polish it with a double grindstone, and similarly, you can cut the side surface with a fine-grained grindstone that gives you a mirror finish, or you can cut it with a fine-grained grindstone and then polish it sequentially, or you can apply an abrasive to each machined surface. It may be used for wrapping processing. In addition, sandblasting, liquid polishing,
Alternatively, there is a method of mixing abrasive grains in a viscoelastically charged ura and applying hydraulic pressure for polishing. Furthermore, the process can be further simplified by means of smoothing by chemical treatment such as chemical etching.

減される。1 Effect] In the core slider for a magnetic head configured in this way, microcracks in the surface layer that are difficult to predict and control caused by machining such as cutting are removed by smoothing treatment, so that the cause of the occurrence of these microcracks is eliminated. This prevents the development of static fatigue fracture and significantly reduces the amount of grain shed.
