Patent ID: 7588482

Claim:
An apparatus for manufacturing a liquid crystal display (LCD) device, comprising: a table receiving an LCD panel thereon; a first grinding part grinding a surface of the LCD panel to a first surface roughness; a second grinding part grinding the surface of the LCD panel grinded to the first surface roughness to a second surface roughness, wherein the second surface roughness is smoother than the first surface roughness; and a polishing part polishing the surface of the LCD panel which is grinded to the second surface roughness, wherein each of the first grinding part and the second grinding part comprises a grinding head which grinds the surface of the LCD panel by friction between the grinding head and the surface of the LCD panel, wherein each of the first grinding part and the second grinding part comprises a grinding driving part, wherein the grinding driving part comprises a rotating driving member connected to the grinding head to rotate the grinding head in parallel with the surface of the LCD panel and a revolving driving member connected to the rotating driving member through a connecting part to revolve the grinding head in parallel with the surface of the LCD panel.
