PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a transport device capable of transporting a thin workpiece in a noncontact fashion and accurately cutting off the thin workpiece into desired dimensions.SOLUTION: Provided is a transport device for feeding a thin workpiece from a wind roll and transporting the thin workpiece on a transport path. The transport device comprises: first movable holding members holding both side end portions of a region close to a tip end of the thin workpiece and transporting the thin workpiece; fixed holding members holding both side end portions of the thin workpiece close to a winding roll; a cutter cutting off the thin workpiece between the first movable holding members and the fixed holding members; second movable holding members holding a region close to the tip end of the thin workpiece and transporting the thin workpiece; a first position sensor provided between the winding roll and the first movable holding members and detecting a position of the thin workpiece in a width direction of the thin workpiece; and a winding position correction mechanism correcting a position of the winding roll in a direction orthogonal to a winding direction on the basis of a detection result of the first position sensor. |
