A method for surface treatment of a workpiece includes providing the workpiece with hardened workpiece surface, clamping the workpiece, removing material from the hardened workpiece surface with a material removal tool to produce a machined surface with first machining tracks, and rolling the machined surface with a rolling tool by overlapping the first machining tracks to produce a rolled surface with second machining tracks. A distance between the material removal tool and the rolling tool measured in an axial direction of the workpiece is varied in an oscillating manner. The material removal tool may be advanced in the axial direction at a constant speed and the rolling tool may be advanced in the axial direction at an oscillating speed, or the rolling tool may be advanced in the axial direction at a constant speed and the material removal tool may be advanced in the axial direction at an oscillating speed.
