METHOD OF MANUFACTURING FORMED BODY FOR ELECTRODE

A method of manufacturing a formed body for an electrode includes a first step of dropping an electrode material containing an electrode active material into a gap between a pair of transport belts and introducing the electrode material between transport surfaces of the pair of transport belts; a second step of belt-transporting and pressurizing the introduced electrode material with the pair of transport belts; and a third step of transferring the electrode material after the belt transporting and the pressurization, on a deposition belt, in which a transport direction in a transport, passage through which the electrode material is transported, of the deposition belt intersects a transport direction in a transport passage, through which the electrode material is transported, of the pair of transport belts.
