Abstract
The grinding machine and the method of grinding are capable of grinding a bar member for a magnetic head with higher grinding accuracy. In the grinding machine, a holding frame holds a bar member and heads a first face of the bar member, which is to be ground, downward. A grinding plate grinds the first face of the bar member. An actuator presses a second face of the bar member held by the holding frame so as to press the first face onto the grinding plate. A resistance monitor monitors a resistance value of a sensing part of an ELG element section of the bar member so as to adjust a strip height of a magnetic head section of the bar member.
