Abstract: The invention provides an adhesive applying method which makes it possible to perform a stabilized adhesive applying operation and to reduce the overall production time. In detecting the amount of adhesive applied and performing a corrective operation so as to ensure application of a predetermined amount of adhesive, a corrected value obtained by a corrective operation is stored at step #5. At step #7, an infinitesimal correction formula which shows the relationship of the corrected value with respect to the amount of adhesive used is found on the basis of the corrected values stored last time and this time and on the basis of the amount of adhesive used during the time from the preceding corrective operation and the current corrective operation. And a productive corrected value found by the infinitesimal correction formula is used for adhesive application from the next time on.
