Abstract
A method for improving an accuracy of measurement of the thickness of a green sheet, and additionally improving yield of a green sheet used for formation of a laminated body is provided. The thickness of each of a plurality of ceramic green sheets is measured, and an average and a variation of obtained thickness measurement values are checked against predetermined ranking criteria. Thereby, a ranking is performed in which the plurality of ceramic green sheets are classified into a plurality of ranks set in the ranking criteria. When forming the laminated body, only a ceramic green sheet belonging to at least one of the ranks which is in advance allowed to be used is used as a ceramic green sheet constituting each layer of the laminated body.
