A manufacturing method for a laminated iron core includes conveying a sheet steel strip in an intermittent manner in a lift up state, with upward movement of the strip being limited by a guiding member provided on a lower holder; punching an outer shape of each iron core laminae; and applying adhesive agent to a surface of the strip before the punching. The adhesive agent is applied in a state in which a pilot pin is inserted in a pilot hole of the strip and when the strip is about to be pressed against or is being pressed against the die plate by a stripper provided on an upper holder. After application of the adhesive agent, the strip is returned to the lift up state by raising the upper holder, with a lifter and the stripper plate being in abutment with the lower and upper surfaces of the strip, respectively.
