Abstract

To construct a sheet transfer system with a distributed control, which does not require centralized control of all manufacturing line. In the invention, each of semiconductor wafers 1 is carried on a wafer carrier 2. An ID tag 4 having a readable and writable memory is attached to each wafer carrier 2 and the semiconductor wafer is conveyed on a conveyor 3 together with the wafer carrier 2. Each manufacturing apparatus 5 has an equipment front end module 6(EFEM) for controlling the incoming and outgoing of the semiconductor wafers 1. The equipment front end module 6 reads information on the processes performed on each semiconductor wafer 1 being conveyed on the conveyor 3 from the memory-equipped ID tag 4 for the semiconductor wafer 1 and determines whether the semiconductor wafer 1 needs to be processed in the manufacturing apparatus 5. If the semiconductor wafer 1 needs so, it is taken into the manufacturing apparatus 5 and processed therein. After the process, the equipment front end module 6 adds the information on the process performed in the manufacturing apparatus 5 to the previous information in the memory-equipped tag 4 on the wafer carrier 2 carries the semiconductor wafer processed by the equipment. Then, the semiconductor wafer 1 is returned onto the conveyor 3 and conveyed on the conveyor 3.
