Abstract
A linear groove formation method including forming a coated resist on a surface of a steel sheet, irradiating two or more laser beams onto the surface of the steel sheet while scanning the laser beams in a direction intersecting the rolling direction of the steel sheet cyclically in a rolling direction of the steel sheet, and forming linear grooves by etching portions of the steel sheet. In the laser irradiating process, the coated resist is removed continuously in a sheet transverse direction of the steel sheet by using the laser beams irradiated from respective ones of two or more laser irradiation devices arranged in the sheet transverse direction, and the laser beams are irradiated by shifting centers of two of the laser beams irradiated from two of the laser two of the laser irradiation devices adjacent to each other in the sheet transverse direction.
