    摘要: A substrate processing apparatus is provided with a substrate transport apparatus. The transport apparatus is used for automating alignment of the processing apparatus. In one aspect, a through-beam sensor on the transport apparatus is used to level parts of the processing apparatus. In another aspect, a through-beam sensor on the transport apparatus is used to determine the locations and angular orientations of substrate stations within a plane. In another aspect, the transport apparatus teaches itself the accurate location of a substrate aligner by repeatedly placing the substrate on the aligner, recording positional data, constructing a cost function, and determining the location of the aligner by minimizing the cost function using a numerical technique.
