Device for manufacturing fins and method for manufacturing fins

A fin manufacturing apparatus includes: a progressive pressing device that forms, by forming in a metal plate having thermal conductivity a plurality of openings for tube-insertion and a plurality of slits while leaving uncut portions, strips that each have openings along a longitudinal direction of the strip and are partially coupled to each other in a width direction; an inter-row cutting device that separates, by cutting the portions via which the strips are coupled to each other, the strips such that each strip has a width of the fin; a cutoff device that cuts the separated strips to a predetermined length; and a guiding device between the inter-row cutting device and an inter-row slit device that guides and supplies, to the inter-row cutting device, the strips that are partially coupled to each other in the width direction, are arranged in the width direction, and are conveyed in the longitudinal direction.
