Abstract:
1. A paste coating apparatus comprising, a fastener to hold a substantially rectangular parallelepiped ceramic body so that at least a first end face in a longitudinal direction of the substantially rectangular parallelepiped ceramic body is exposed; a paste coating roller rotatably disposed, wherein a coat of a paste for forming a terminal electrode is formed on an outer circumference of said paste coating roller; a movement device to move said fastener so that the first end face of said ceramic body exposed from said fastener and a part of adjacent sides to said first end face have contact with said coat of the paste formed on the outer circumference of said roller, and also that said ceramic body is moved in the substantially same direction with the rotating direction of said roller; and a control device for controlling a peripheral speed of said roller and a speed of movement of said fastener by said movement device so that a ratio Vp/Vc satisfies: when the speed of movement of said ceramic body is Vc and the peripheral speed of said roller at the circumference in contact with said first end face of said ceramic body is Vp.
