PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a laminating apparatus by which a resin film can be made to completely follow irregularities on a substrate even if the irregularities on the substrate have pointed parts, and to provide a laminating method.SOLUTION: A laminating apparatus comprises: conveying means for conveying a temporal laminate 3, in which the temporal laminate consists of a substrate having irregularities and a resin film made from a thermosetting resin in a B-stage state and placed on the irregular surface of the substrate; sealed space-forming means for accommodating the conveyed temporal laminate 3; negative pressure-forming means for generating a negative pressure in a sealed space formed by the sealed space forming means; and heating means for heating the temporal laminate 3 from the substrate side thereof, in the sealed space in the negative pressure state, to soften the resin film. The sealed space in the negative pressure state is set to ambient pressure or is pressurized, and the resin film which has been softened in a contactless state is caused to adhere along the irregularities of the substrate to form a final laminate 4 from the temporal laminate 3.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 |
