Abstract
A setting method of a protective component includes a resin supply step of supplying a thermoplastic resin to a flat support surface of a support table, and a protective component forming step of shaping the thermoplastic resin into a sheet shape through pressing and spreading the thermoplastic resin along the support surface while heating and softening the thermoplastic resin to form a protective component of the thermoplastic resin in the sheet shape on the support surface. The setting method includes also a protective component bonding step of bringing a front surface that is one surface of the workpiece into tight contact with one surface of the protective component in the sheet shape and heating the protective component in tight contact to bond the protective component to the workpiece, and a post-bonding cooling step of cooling the protective component heated in the protective component bonding step.
