Abstract
A dressing apparatus comprises a head movably mounted on a tip portion of a body, the head having a tip having formed therein a cut-out which opens in the direction of the movement of the head and into which one of outer and inner peripheral cutting edges formed on a cut-off wheel in the form of a disc is adapted to be inserted, a tape traveling device mounted on the head and the body for causing a tape having a layer of abrasive grain on a side thereof to travel across the cut-out in the head, and an actuator disposed between the head and the body for moving the head. The dressing apparatus and a dressing method are arranged such that the one peripheral cutting edge is inserted into the cut-out in the head, and the one peripheral cutting edge and the side of the tape are brought into contact with each other while causing the tape to travel by the tape traveling device, to apply the dressing to the one peripheral cutting edge.
