摘要

A plate-like grid (24) having a plurality of beam apertures (26) and a plate-like molding tool (36a) are prepared. The molding tool has spacer forming holes (40a) and hole forming portions (56a) which are situated individually around the spacer forming holes to define the spacer forming holes and are formed of a UV transmitting material. The molding tool is brought in contact with a surface of the grid, whereby an assembly composed of the molding tool and the grid is formed. An ultraviolet-curing spacer forming material (46) is filled into the spacer forming holes of the molding tool before or after the formation of the assembly. Ultraviolet rays are applied to the filled spacer forming material directly or through the hole forming portions, whereby the spacer forming material is cured. Thereafter, the molding tool is separated from the grid with the cured spacer forming material left on the grid.
