Abstract

A cutting tool adjustment method includes lowering a cutting tool on a transparent Mylar to produce an indentation before an actual scribing operation; picking up the image of the indentation; using a numerical analysis method and a set formula to automatically calculate a correction angle and position so as to adjust the angle and position of the cutting tool subject to the calculation result; and repeating the calculation and adjustment procedures, if necessary.
