Abstract (en)

A manufacturing method of a sub-muffler (1, 201) includes a tubular body shaping step (S3), a central part spinning machining step (S5, S7, S26, S27), and a diameter reduction machining step (S8, S28). In the tubular body shaping step (S3), a cylindrical body (2, 202) is formed by rolling a plate material (70). In the central part spinning machining step (S5, S7, S26, S27), the cross-sectional shape of a central part (20, 220) of the cylindrical body (2, 202) is machined into a rectangular shape by performing a spinning machining in which a rotating roller (88) is moved along a rectangular trajectory (T3, T6) while pressing the rotating roller (88) onto the central part (20, 220) of the cylindrical body (2, 208). In the diameter reduction machining step (S8, S28), the diameter of an end (80, 81, 280, 281) of the cylindrical body (2, 208) is reduced.
