Abstract
A spinning forming apparatus shapes a plate while rotating the plate around a rotational axis. The spinning forming apparatus includes: a holding member to which the plate is attached and which rotates the plate around the rotational axis; a processing tool configured to contact a first main surface of the plate to process and shape the plate; and a heater configured to heat the plate. The heater is arranged at the opposite side of the processing tool across the plate. The heater locally heats a position of a second main surface of the plate opposite to the first main surface, the position being located on a circumference around the rotational axis, the circumference being defined by a position, with which the processing tool contacts, of the plate.
