A method and apparatus are provided for manufacturing a liquid crystal
display device. The method includes the steps of providing at least a
first substrate and a second substrate on a single production process
line, passing the first and second substrates through a sealing material
coating portion of the single production process line in serial order such
that a sealing material is coated on the second substrate with the first
substrate being passed through the sealing material coating portion
without forming a sealing material thereon, passing the first and the
second substrates through a liquid crystal dispensing portion of the
single production process line in serial order such that liquid crystal is
dispensed onto a pixel region of one of the first and second substrates
with the other one of the first and second substrates being passed through
the liquid crystal dispensing portion without dispensing liquid crystal
thereon, and assembling the first substrate with the second substrate to
form a liquid crystal panel of at least one liquid crystal display device.
