An apparatus for manufacturing absorbent article includes a rotary drum disposing a workpiece on a web and a web position guiding mechanism that guides a position of the web. The rotary drum includes a suction unit sucking the workpiece. The suction unit changes a disposition direction of the workpiece from a first disposition direction at the reception point to a second disposition direction at a delivery point. In a cross section taken along the second disposition direction at the delivery point, an external shape of the workpiece sucked by the suction unit is an external shape in which an outer edge portion of the workpiece is close to a rotary shaft side of the rotary drum in comparison with a central portion of the workpiece. The web position guiding mechanism is a guiding mechanism in which at an abutment point on an upstream side in a conveyance direction more significantly than the delivery point, the web is disposed so that a central portion of the workpiece and the web come into contact with each other, and at the delivery point, the web is disposed so that an outer edge portion of the workpiece and the web come into contact with each other. |
