Abstract
A magnetic field is applied to multiple base components placed in a space between a support and an upper member to align the base components in a same direction. The support contains a nonmagnetic material and includes a support surface being flat and parallel to a horizontal direction. The upper member contains a nonmagnetic material and is located above the support at a predetermined distance from the support surface. The magnetic field includes a magnetic flux line intersecting with the support surface.

A method for aligning multilayer components, the method comprising:
- placing a plurality of multilayer components in a space between a support and an upper member, each of the plurality of multilayer components being a rectangular prism including ceramic green sheets and ferromagnetic layers alternately stacked on one another, the support comprising a nonmagnetic material and including a support surface being flat and parallel to a horizontal direction, the upper member comprising a nonmagnetic material and being located above the support at a predetermined distance from the support surface;
- and
- applying a magnetic field to the plurality of multilayer components to align the plurality of multilayer components in a same direction, the magnetic field including a magnetic flux line intersecting with the support surface.
