The process of cleaning a wafer generally proceeds with cleaning equipment. The cleaning equipment must be able to clean many wafers in a short time to increase productivity. Failure to do so will reduce the productivity of the entire production line when installed in a semiconductor manufacturing line.

In addition, the cleaning equipment must be compact in configuration to take up less space for installation. If the cleaning equipment takes up a lot of installation space, it will not only be constrained by the installation site, but also unsuitable for the arrangement of semiconductor manufacturing lines.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a multi-chamber wafer supply and recovery apparatus that shortens the time for supplying and withdrawing a wafer to a plurality of chambers for cleaning the wafer.

The wafer alignment unit 500 aligns the third wafer to the set position. At the same time, the transfer robot 700 removes the first wafer on which both sides are cleaned from the first cleaning chamber 200 and then mounts the cassette mounting unit 400 to the empty cassette 10 in which the wafers are not loaded. Load it. The third wafer, in which the transfer robot 700 is aligned, is picked up from the wafer alignment unit 500 and positioned in the first cleaning chamber 200. The transfer robot 700 removes the wafer to be cleaned from the cassette 10 and places the wafer (hereinafter referred to as a fourth wafer) on the support shafts 511 of the wafer alignment unit 500. The wafer alignment unit 500 aligns the fourth wafer to the set position. At the same time, the transfer robot 700 removes the second wafer having both surfaces cleaned from the second cleaning chamber 200, and then loads the empty wafer 10 in which the wafers are not loaded, mounted on the cassette mounting unit 400. Load it. The fourth wafer on which the transfer robot 700 is aligned is picked up from the wafer alignment unit 500 and positioned in the second cleaning chamber 200.

By repeating the above process, the wafers to be cleaned, which are loaded in the cassette 10, are cleaned and loaded in the empty cassette 10. The above process may be changed according to the time for cleaning the wafer in the first and second cleaning chambers 200.
