An impact-absorbing pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an impact-absorbing pressure-sensitive adhesive layer including an impact-absorbing layer. A side surface of the impact-absorbing pressure-sensitive adhesive layer includes a tapered surface; and the tapered surface has a taper angle of 65&#xb0; or more.

An end face of a polarization plate cut by laser becomes a substantially flat surface having only sloping micro waviness because of having been melted once to be solidified. Since the surface has few stress-concentrated parts that may cause microcracks, this prevents microcracks from easily being produced.

A strip-shaped polarizing film has a protective film strip conformably adhered to one surface thereof and a releasable liner conformably adhered to the other surface thereof and delivered from a film delivering station. After an appearance inspection, a lamination of the protective film strip and the polarizing film strip F is half-cut using a laser unitto form an array of laminations each consisting of a protective film and a polarizing film F, with the releasable liner being left intact. Then, the polarizing films F are fed to a peeling mechanism. The peeling mechanismfeeds a forwardmost one the polarizing films F to a laminating mechanismwhile peeling off the releasable liner therefrom by a knife-edged member. The forwardmost polarizing film F is laminated to a liquid-crystal panel W conveyed to the laminating mechanism by a panel transport apparatusin synchronization of the feeding of the forwardmost polarizing film F.
