Abstract
A screw-type rotary fluid machine such as a compressor or a vacuum pump has male and female rotors which rotate within a casing, with or without mutual contact. At least one of the male and female rotors being surface-treated to have a treated surface structure. The treated surface structure is a multi-layered structures composed of a plurality of layers including a non-electrolytic Ni plating layer and at least one covering layer of organic resin. The organic resin may be one or more kinds selected from a group of engineering plastics, so as to improve mechanical strength.
