METHOD FOR PRODUCING ELECTRODE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING NON-AQUEOUS ELECTROLYTE BATTERY

According to one embodiment, a manufacturing method of an electrode, includes coating a first surface of a current collector with slurry, coating a second surface of the current collector with the slurry, and drying. The first surface of the current collector is coated with slurry containing active material in such a way that a slurry coated portion and a slurry non-coated portion are alternately arranged in a direction perpendicular to a moving direction of the current collector. Next, the current collector is carried to a backup roll including a plurality of annular protruding portions formed on an outer circumferential surface thereof. The slurry non-coated portion of the current collector is arranged on the annular protruding portions. The second surface of the current collector excluding a portion arranged on the annular protruding portions is coated with the slurry containing active material, thereby forming the slurry coated portion. Next, the slurry coated portions on the first surface and the second surface of the current collector are dried.
