Abstract:
A method of manufacturing magnetic heads which comprise:a slider which faces a magnetic recording medium and includes a magnetic core having a gap; and a back yoke which includes a coil provided corresponding to the magnetic core, is connected to the magnetic core to thereby form a closed magnetic path, and is bonded to the slider thereby holding the slider; the manufacturing method comprising: assembling a plurality of magnetic head main bodies by joining the slider and the back yoke of each respective magnetic head main body together to form a plurality of magnetic heads; fixedly bonding each said magnetic head to a holding member that is a mount block to rigidly support each magnetic head as a single unit; placing the plurality of magnetic heads circumferentially on a soft adhesive sheet attached to a cylindrical base block; and subsequently touch lapping a slider surface of each of the plurality of magnetic heads.
