ABSTRACT:
The present invention involves a sucking device having a fixed material transportation surface including plural sucking holes, a decompression chamber connecting to the plural sucking holes, and a sucking device sucking air in the decompression chamber. The fixed material is fed on the fixed material transportation surface of the sucking device by the delivering device, and is stuck on the fixed material transportation surface through the sucking holes by the sucking device. The fixed material is fixed by a fixing head at the state of being stuck and is transported gradually to a downstream side by the delivering device on the fixed material transportation surface. When fixing is finished, the fixed material separates from the surface of the fixed material transportation surface and rises slightly by blowing air from the sucking holes by a blowing device so as to move to a discharging direction.
