A method of manufacturing a load beam precisely positions a slider on a dimple of a load beam according to precisely obtained positional data of the dimple, the method includes preparing a work which is a flat plate and serves as the load beam, irradiating at least a part of the work where the dimple is formed with a laser beam, to form a modified part at the irradiated part, carrying out plastic working on the modified part, to form the dimple having a concave curved surface at the modified part, taking an image of the concave curved surface of the dimple, obtaining the positional data of the dimple from the image, and positioning the slider on the dimple according to the positional data.
