PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a manufacturing method for absorbent articles capable of improving fixing properties of granules to a material by inhibiting scattering of the granules, and a manufacturing apparatus of absorbent articles.SOLUTION: A manufacturing method for sanitary napkins 1 includes: a top sheet conveyance step of conveying a top sheet 200 a first adhesive application step of applying an adhesive to one side surface of the top sheet 200 and a dropping step of dropping a cooling agent 16 to an adhesive application area BA of the top sheet 200 by self-weight. In the dropping step, the cooling agent 16 is dropped from a dropping port 461 in a direction of having at least a vertically downward component, to the top sheet 200 that is obliquely downward conveyed from an upstream side in the conveying direction of the top sheet 200 to a downstream side, in the vertically downward direction of the dropping port 461.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】粒状体の飛散を抑制して資材への粒状体の定着性を向上させることが可能な吸収性物品の製造方法、及び吸収性物品の製造装置を提供する。【解決手段】生理用ナプキン1の製造方法は、トップシート200を搬送するトップシート搬送工程と、トップシート200の一側の面に接着剤を塗布する第1接着剤塗布工程と、トップシート200の接着剤塗布領域BAに冷感剤16を自重により落下させる落下工程とを有し、落下工程では、落下口461の鉛直下方向においてトップシート200の搬送方向の上流側から下流側に向かって斜め下方向に搬送されるトップシート200に対して、落下口461から少なくとも鉛直下方向の成分を有する方向へ冷感剤16を落下させる。【選択図】図3
