An apparatus for manufacturing a three-dimensional netted structure, the apparatus including: drawing-down units, the drawing-down units being submerged or partly-submerged in a liquid, and a die with a mouthpiece having a plurality of holes, the die adapted to extrude the filaments downward at a speed lower than the filament dropping speed whereby the filaments drop in between the drawing-down units. The distance between the drawing-down units is smaller than the width of the assembly of the extruded filaments. The drawing-down units are adapted to contact four surfaces of the assembly of the filaments before or after the drawing-down units are submerged.
