Abstract
Provided is a building material manufacturing apparatus and a building material manufacturing method that are suitable for efficiently manufacturing a building material while suppressing clogging of a sieve portion for sieving the building raw material. The building material manufacturing apparatus of the present invention includes, for example, a sieve portionand a receiving tool. The sieve portionincludes a receiving and sending sheetwith no sieve openings, onto which the building raw material M is dropped, and at least one sieve sheetwith sieve openings that is located below the sheet. The receiving and sending sheetand the sieve sheetcan perform undulating motion, are inclined, and are arranged side by side in the inclination direction. The receiving toolis for receiving the building raw material M that has passed through the sieve openings of the sieve portion. In the building material manufacturing method of the present invention, for example, in a state in which the receiving and sending sheetand the at least one sieve sheetare performing undulating motion, the building raw material M is dropped onto the receiving and sending sheet, moved from the receiving and sending sheetonto the sieve sheet, subjected to sieving by the sieve sheet, and the portion that passes through the sieve openings of the sieve sheetis accumulated on the receiving tool, whereby a mat with at least one layer is formed.
