Abstract
A method of manufacturing oscillator devices each having an oscillator and a resilient supporting member for supporting the oscillator for oscillatory motion, includes a step of processing one and the same substrate to form oscillators and resilient supporting members of oscillator devices so that oscillators of adjacent oscillator devices are connected to each other, a step of forming or placing a magnetic material so that it extends across the connected oscillators of the adjacent oscillator devices, and a step of simultaneously cutting and separating the connected oscillators and the magnetic material formed or placed to extend across the connected oscillators, whereby oscillator devices, such as oscillatory type actuators having good reliability and performance evenness can be manufactured with high productivity.
