A pair of upper and lower pressure rollers (3, 4) are so arranged that their shaft cores (15, 16) are inclined in directions, within a horizontal face, opposite to a straight line orthogonal to the welding line of a bonding section (J). While driving the pressure rollers (3, 4) actively by electric motors (63, 64), metal material is rolled. This smoothens a level difference at the bonding section or reduces the incline of the level difference to secure high bonding strength. The shaft cores (15, 16) of the pressure rollers (3, 4) are inclined in the direction so that the advancing-direction sections (3A, 4A) of the pressure rollers (3, 4) face, within the horizontal face, a direction opposite to the direction wherein the metal plates (5, 6) exist. The metal plates are those to be brought into contact with the pressure rollers (3, 4) first and to be handled by a metal material. This prevents the level difference section from being folded into the base material of the metal plates (5, 6), so that a stress concentration factor is reduced and a level difference (S) at the bonding section is smoothened, thereby improving the quality of the bonding section.
