Abstract
A method for manufacturing an electrode is provided, the method including coating and drying of an electrode paste and being able to highly suppress variations in the weight per unit area of the active material layer. The method for manufacturing an electrode disclosed herein includes the steps of: coating an electrode paste onto a current collecting foil from a die; and drying the coated electrode paste. Here, the current collecting foil is conveyed by a backup roll. A variation in at least one of thickness and width of the coated electrode paste is measured. The peripheral speed of the backup roll is changed according to a measurement result of the variation so that the variation becomes small.
