NOVELTY - The method of manufacturing an electrode for lithium secondary battery, comprises preparing an electrode plate (ST10) by preparing a preliminary electrode plate having blank regions at its both sides and slitting the electrode plate, thus providing the electrode plate, cutting the electrode plate (ST20) in a scissor manner to conform with a width of the electrode, thus providing a unit electrode plat, and removing one of corner regions of the unit electrode plate using a cutting tool having a shape corresponding to a shape of the comer region to be removed in a predetermined pattern.    USE - The method of manufacturing an electrode for lithium secondary battery (claimed) is useful as a power source in electronic communication devices and for high-power hybrid vehicles.    ADVANTAGE - The method minimizes raw material loss, prevents the occurrence of debris and enables the manufacture of electrodes having various sizes and shapes.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - The method of manufacturing an electrode for lithium secondary battery, comprises preparing an electrode plate (ST10) by preparing a preliminary electrode plate having blank regions at its both sides and slitting the preliminary electrode plate, thus providing the electrode plate, cutting the electrode plate (ST20) in a scissor manner to conform with a width of the electrode, thus providing a unit electrode plat, and removing one of corner regions of the unit electrode plate using a cutting tool having a shape corresponding to a shape of the comer region to be removed in a predetermined pattern by disposing a cutting die over the first corner region, removing the first corner region of the unit electrode plate using the cutting tool, moving the unit electrode plate such that the cutting tool is positioned over the second corner region and removing the second comer region of the unit electrode plate using the cutting tool. The slitting of the preliminary electrode plate is conducted in such a way as to slit the preliminary electrode plate along a center line with respect to a width of the preliminary electrode plate. The unit electrode plate includes a blank region at its side margin, on which no active material is applied. The removal of corner regions is conducted in such a way as to remove first and second comer regions sequentially. The cutting and removing steps are conducted in a continuous process.
