Abstract
A method of and apparatus for fabricating an article having an aspheric figure, wherein the three-dimensional positional relationship between a work and a grinding spindle as a processing tool is controlled in terms of a polar coordinate system. The grinding spindle extends in a plane which is perpendicular to the direction of rotation of said work and is made to swing along an arcuate path. The distance between the axis of rotation of the work and the axis of the swing of the grinding spindle is changed in relation to the rotational angular position of the work.
