Abstract
A manufacturing method includes: heating an overlapped blank; transferring the heated overlapped blank; and a step of performing presswork on the heated overlapped blank by using a die. In the heating step, when sheet-thicknesses of the first and second steel sheets are set, respectively, and an average heating rate at a sheet temperature from 20 to 800° C. of a portion with a total sheet thickness of an overlapped portion, and a non-overlapped portion are set, the total sheet thickness is 2.5 to 5.0 mm, a maximum length of the overlapped portion is 100 to 1100 mm, an area of the first steel sheet, an area of a portion, of the second steel sheet, overlapped with the first steel sheet, and the average heating rates satisfy Expressions (1) to (3), and heating is performed at a temperature and for a time within a specific range on a plane of coordinates.
