PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a manufacture process for absorber, which highly precisely and easily confirms whether absorbent polymers have been sprayed as planned so that high-quality absorbers can be manufactured economically.SOLUTION: In this manufacture process, an intermittent spray machine 3 intermittently sprays the absorbent polymer 30 on strips of fiber aggregates 2 under being transported, and after the spray of the absorbent polymer 30, the fiber aggregates 2 (specifically, continuous absorbent bodies 10A) are intermittently cut with a cutter 6 to obtain absorbent bodies 10. Numerical values output from a sensor 74 which is arranged on the transport route of polymer-sprayed fiber aggregates and gives signals in proportion to the sprayed polymer density in them are recorded. The volume of the absorbent polymer 30 present in each polymer spray region 3a is determined by recording and aggregating the numerical values output from the sensor 74 while each polymer spray region 3a passes the position of the sensor 74.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】吸水性ポリマーが設計通りに散布されているか否かを高精度且つ簡便に確認でき、高品質の吸収体を経済的に製造することのできる吸収体の製造方法を提供すること。【解決手段】搬送される帯状の繊維集合体2上に間欠散布装置3により吸水性ポリマー30を間欠的に散布し、該吸水性ポリマー30を散布した後の繊維集合体2(具体的には吸収体連続体10A)を切断装置6で間欠的に切断して吸収体10を得る吸収体の製造方法であって、ポリマー散布後の繊維集合体の搬送路に配置した、ポリマーの密度に比例した信号を出力するセンサー74の出力値を記録し、各ポリマー散布領域3aがセンサー74の配置位置を通過している間の該センサー74の出力値を記録及び積算して各ポリマー散布領域3aに存する吸水性ポリマー30の量を求める。【選択図】図1
