Abstract:
There is provided a method for processing a raceway groove configured to circumferentially form a to-be-processed side raceway groove on a surface to be processed of a workpiece, the to-be-processed side raceway groove is configured to be brought into rolling contact with a rolling element, and the surface to be processed is a cylindrical circumferential surface. The method for processing a raceway groove includes: arranging a processing rolling element rotatably between the to-be-processed side raceway groove and a tool side circumferential surface which is opposed to the surface to be processed and which is a cylindrical circumferential surface of a machining tool; rotating the machining tool relatively with respect to the workpiece; and performing a burnishing process on the to-be-processed side raceway groove.

Claim (Index 7):
The method for processing a raceway groove according to  claim 6 ,\n wherein after the to-be-processed side raceway groove is formed on the surface to be processed by the cutting process, and further after heat treatment is applied to the workpiece, the to-be-processed side raceway groove is subjected to the burnishing process.
