<p>There is disclosed a method capable of effectively suppressing deformation when a honeycomb formed body formed by horizontal extrusion is supported by a cradle, and supporting even a large honeycomb formed body so that cell wall buckling hardly occur and a high shape accuracy is kept, wherein the lowermost end of a supporting surface 8 of the cradle 7 is located below the lowermost end of the honeycomb formed body 1 immediately after extruded through the die 13 during the horizontal movement, and a distance A in a vertical direction between the lowermost end of the honeycomb formed body 1 immediately after extruded through the die 13 and the lowermost end of the supporting surface 8 of the cradle 7 is from 5 to 15 mm during the horizontal movement when a honeycomb formed body 1 extruded through a die 13 in a horizontal direction by extrusion is supported by a cradle 7.</p> |
