Metal powders (P) are spread on a feeding belt (2) or a supporting sheet which is continuously fed. Then, the feeding belt or the supporting sheet on which the metal powders have been spread is passed between a pair of rolling rollers (150) to roll them at a required strength of pressure to leave fine gaps between the metal powders adjacent to each other. Thereafter, a resulting metal sheet (10) is passed through a sintering oven (4) to integrate the metal powders to each other so as to form a porous metal sheet having fine pores consisting of the gaps. It is possible to spread the metal powders on the rolling roller directly or to use a mixture of sublimable fine fragments and metal powders. Further, it is possible to form a solid metal sheet, namely, a metal sheet having no pores formed thereon, by setting the strength of pressure of the rolling roller to a high value. <IMAGE> |
