A fuel cell is manufactured using a polymer electrolyte membrane ( 1 ). A catalyst layer ( 12 ) is formed at fixed intervals on the surface of the strip-form polymer electrolyte membrane ( 1 ) in the lengthwise direction thereof, and conveyance holes ( 10 ) are formed in series at fixed intervals on the two side portions thereof. By rotating a conveyance roller ( 32 ) comprising on its outer periphery projections which engage with the holes ( 10 ), the polymer electrolyte membrane ( 1 ) is fed from a reel ( 9 ). A GDL ( 6 ) and a separator ( 7 ) are adhered to the fed polymer electrolyte membrane ( 1 ) at a predetermined processing timing based on the rotation speed of the conveyance roller ( 32 ), and thus the fuel cell is manufactured efficiently while the GDL ( 6 ) and separator ( 7 ) are laminated onto the catalyst layer ( 12 ) accurately.
