A device for manufacturing a support for fixing cells of the present invention is capable of easily manufacturing a support that has needle-like bodies arranged on a base. The manufacturing device 2 is provided with a base 10, a holder 4, an insertion guide 6 and an alignment mechanism. The base 10 is retained by a holder 4. The base 10 is provided with a plurality of openings 15, into which needle-like bodies 20 are inserted and fixed. An insertion guide 6 is provided next to the holder 4 and includes slots 12 for placing a plurality of needle-like bodies 20 generally parallel to each other. The insertion guide 6 is provided with a plurality of slots 12 for placing the needle-like bodies 20 at corresponding positions to the openings 15, so that the alignment mechanism moves the insertion guide 6 such that the feed openings 12a are positioned adjacent to the openings 15. After positioning the feed openings 12a adjacent to the openings 15, the needle-like bodies 20 are introduced into the openings 15, whereby the needle-like bodies 20 are implanted into the base 10 to form a support.
