    Abstract: A substrate processing apparatus which causes a processing tape to abut against a processing object, including: a tape supply reel configured to supply the processing tape; a tape recovery reel configured to recover the processing tape; a recovery motor configured to apply a torque to the tape recovery reel; a tape feed motor configured to feed the processing tape between the tape supply reel and the tape recovery reel; and a control unit configured to control the tape feed motor, wherein the control unit controls the torque of the recovery motor depending on a change in an outer diameter of a roll of the processing tape wound by the tape recovery reel such that tension applied to the processing tape is constant, using a feed length of the tape fed by the tape feed motor and a thickness of the processing tape.

    Abstract: A method of detecting an abnormality in polishing of a substrate is provided. The method includes: rotating the substrate; pressing a polishing tool against an edge portion of the substrate to polish the edge portion; measuring a position of the polishing tool relative to a surface of the substrate; determining an amount of polishing of the substrate from the position of the polishing tool; calculating a polishing rate from the amount of polishing of the substrate; and judging that an abnormality in polishing of the edge portion of the substrate has occurred if the polishing rate is out of a predetermined range.

    Abstract: A current measuring module for measuring a current flowing through the substrate holder using an inspection substrate is provided. The substrate holder includes a plurality of holder electric contacts. The plurality of holder electric contacts contact a substrate to supply the held substrate with a current. The substrate holder holds the inspection substrate for measuring the current flowing through the substrate holder. The plurality of holder electric contacts contact a plurality of respective independent substrate electric contacts disposed on the inspection substrate. The inspection substrate includes a plurality of measurement points connected to the plurality of respective substrate electric contacts with wirings and substrate side connectors electrically connected to the plurality of measurement points. The current measuring module includes a plurality of inspection probes configured to contact the plurality of respective measurement points on the inspection substrate.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a substrate transfer apparatus including: a pair of hands facing with each other; an opening/closing mechanism configured to move the pair of hands symmetrically in an opening/closing direction; a driving unit configured to transmit a power to the opening/closing mechanism; and a controller configured to control an operation of the driving unit. The opening/closing mechanism includes: a rotating body configured to rotate depending on a moving amount of the pair of hands in the opening/closing direction, and a sensor configured to detect a rotating amount of the rotating body. The controller controls an operation of the driving unit based on a signal from the sensor.
