Abstract
An apparatus includes a control device for a first suction portion, a second suction portion, and a folding portion so that each time a separator is folded, a positive electrode and a negative electrode are alternately sandwiched between folded surfaces of the separator. The control device controls the at least one of the first suction portion and the second suction portion so that doping foil is bonded to one of a current collector, the positive electrode, and the negative electrode sucked and held by the at least one of the first suction portion and the second suction portion. The control device controls the at least one of the first suction portion and the second suction portion so that the one of the current collector, the positive electrode, and the negative electrode having the lithium metal foil bonded thereto is transported and sandwiched between a predetermined pair of the folded surfaces of the separator.
