Abstract
A manufacturing method includes i) emitting a primary laser beam along a primary trajectory on a boundary between a first member and a second member by a welding apparatus; ii) emitting an advanced laser beam along an advanced trajectory that does not overlap the primary trajectory by the welding apparatus; and iii) emitting a subsequent laser beam along a subsequent trajectory that does not overlap the primary trajectory and the advanced trajectory by the welding apparatus.
