Absorbent-body manufacturing apparatus
An absorbent-body manufacturing apparatus manufactures an absorbent body by depositing absorbent-body material in a plurality of recess sections spaced at an arrangement pitch on an outer circumferential face of a drum. The apparatus has a driving source that drives the drum in synchronization with another apparatus based on a synchronization signal. First and second signal-generating sections repeatedly generate first and second rotational-angle signals based on a rotation of the drum with a rotational angle of the drum as a unit, the rotational angle of the drum corresponding to first and second pitches, respectively. Depending on whether the arrangement pitch is set to the first or second pitch, a controller controls rotational driving operation of the driving source based on the first or second rotational-angle signal and on the synchronization signal.
