ABSTRACT:
A manufacturing apparatus which thermal design is easy, and which is small in size and light in weight is provided which is operated by a person in a micro-gravity environment. The manufacturing apparatus has a manufacturing unit having an operation side on which an operation is performed directly by the hand of an operator who faces the front of the facility, and a housing section for supporting the manufacturing unit slidably along the operation side and in such a manner as to be pulled out from the front of the apparatus to the outside. The manufacturing unit is housed with the operation side being vertical, and slides substantially horizontally. Also, an observation facility is disposed between two manufacturing unit housed in a constant-temperature tank so that the two facing sides of the member are observed simultaneously.
