Abstract

Provided is a workpiece cutting method of cutting a workpiece in which a reinforcement layer to which compression stress is applied is stacked on a surface of a non-reinforcement layer in a thickness direction of the workpiece, the workpiece cutting method including a process of continuously heating the surface of the reinforcement layer in a direction perpendicular to the thickness direction and transferring heat to the reinforcement layer and the non-reinforcement layer; and a process of injecting a cooling medium to a surface of the workpiece after heating, and generating thermal stress equal to or larger than breaking stress of the non-reinforcement layer in a boundary portion of the non-reinforcement layer with respect to the reinforcement layer. According to the workpiece cutting method, the workpiece can be rapidly cut, and deterioration of quality of the cutting portion can be suppressed.
