i)第2の基板を基板ホルダに載置するステップと、
j)第2の基板の頂面の上の第2の相手部品を基板ホルダに固定するステップと、
を含んでいる。
a)基板ホルダを基板ホルダ装填装置の内部に取り付けるステップと、
b)第1の相手部品を基板ホルダから取り外すステップと、
c)基板ホルダの外側に存在する場合に第1の相手部品を取り外すことによって既に基板ホルダに収容された基板を固定解除するステップと、
d)第1の基板を基板ホルダの上に載置するステップと、
e)第1の基板の頂面において第1の相手部品を基板ホルダに固定するステップと、

j)第2の基板の頂面において第2の相手部品を基板ホルダに固定するステップと、
を含んでいる。このような方法によって、高効率の装填プロセスに高い処理量を付与することができることに留意すべきである。本発明では、例えば処理から装填された基板ホルダが、基板ホルダ装填装置に導入される。基板ホルダ装填装置に収容された基板が取り外され、処理すべき第1の基板及び第2の基板が依然として開放されている基板ホルダに載置される。従って、基板が基板ホルダに既に配設されている場合であっても、処理プロセス全体が大きく変更されることなく、装填に要する時間は同様に維持される。例えば、これによって、同時に実施される複数のプロセスステップを具備する処理量が高いプロセスを、点検上の理由によってフレキシブルに単一の基板ホルダを交換すること、又は一方のタイプの基板ホルダを他方のタイプの基板ホルダに滑らかに交換することと自在に組み合わせることができる。
