PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a plasticizing apparatus for passing a material containing fibers through a flow path around a torpedo to promote melting of the material, wherein, when plasticizing a resin containing supplied fibers, breakage of the fibers is suppressed while dispersing the fibers, and the fibers can be supplied to the next step in a state where the orientations of the fibers are aligned to some extent.SOLUTION: The present invention provides a plasticizing apparatus 11 for passing a material M containing fibers through a flow path 29 around a torpedo 25 to promote melting of the material. In the apparatus, a distributed supply part 36 having a plurality of flow paths 35 is provided on the downstream side of the torpedo 25.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】繊維を含む材料をトーピードの周囲の流路を通過させ材料の溶融を促進させる可塑化装置において、供給された繊維を含む樹脂を可塑化する際に繊維の折損を抑制しつつ繊維の分散を図り、なおかつ繊維の方向をある程度揃えた状態で次工程に向けて供給することができる可塑化装置を提供する。【解決手段】繊維を含む材料Ｍをトーピード２５の周囲の流路２９を通過させ材料の溶融を促進させる可塑化装置１１において、トーピード２５の下流側に複数の流路３５を設けた分散供給部３６を備える。【選択図】図１
