Further, the first cutter wheel W1 of the scribe mechanism 70 is aligned with the position of the terminal cut surface Cb of the first substrate G1. Then, the first scribing is performed simultaneously with a strong pressure contact force. At this time, since no stress is generated near the terminal region T, the scribe groove can be extended deeply. Since the terminal region T in which the scribe groove is formed is a region where both sides are fixed by the sealing materials S1 and S2, as a result of the scribe groove spreading, compressive stress is applied in the vicinity of the terminal cut surface Cb.
  • the first cutter wheel W1 of the scribe mechanism 70 is aligned with the position of the just cut surface Ca.
  • the backup roller W3 of the scribe mechanism 60 is aligned with the second substrate G2.
  • the backup roller W3 is moved laterally so as to be disengaged from the position of the just cut surface Ca where the scribe groove is first formed so that the scribe groove is not damaged.
  • the second scribing process is performed with a pressure contact force weaker than the first time.
  • the just cut surface of the first substrate G1 is scribed while resisting compressive stress, so that it is difficult to extend deeply, and the scribe groove becomes shallow. Since this portion was originally intended to form a scribe groove shallower than the terminal cut surface Cb, a preferable scribe groove is formed.
  • each unit display panel includes not only the terminal region T sandwiched between the terminal cut surface Cb and the just cut surface Ca but also boundaries of other shapes.
  • Such a case will be described with a specific example.
  • FIG. 11 shows an example of scribing in the Y direction with respect to a mother board 90 in which unit display panels that are two-terminal panels are arranged in two rows in the X direction and four rows in the Y direction.
  • FIG. 12 shows an example of scribing in the X direction.
  • the central terminal region T is a terminal region sandwiched between the terminal cut surface and the just cut surface (a terminal region in which the end material region may fail to be detached from the terminal cut surface).
  • the first strong scribe (Y1) is performed on the central terminal region T. That is, strong scribing is performed on the terminal cut surface of the first substrate G1 and the just cut surface of the second substrate G2.
  • a second strong scribe (Y2) is performed on the terminal region TL near the left end.
  • a third round strong scribing (to Y3), performed on the just cut surface T R near the right end.
  • the fourth weak scribe (Y4) is performed with a weak scribe against the just cut surface of the first substrate in the central terminal region T.
  • scribing is performed while pressing the backup roller W3 beside the just cut surface of the second substrate G2 (in the figure, the position is indicated by a cross mark instead of an arrow).
  • X2 terminal cut surface of the first substrate G1 and just cut surface of the second substrate G2
  • X3 just cut surface of the first substrate G1
  • X4 first substrate G1.
  • Terminal cut surface and the second substrate G2 just cut surface X5 (first substrate G1 just cut surface)
  • X6 first substrate G1 terminal cut surface and second substrate G2 just cut surface
  • X7 Processing is performed in the order of the just cut surface of the first substrate G1.
  • scribing is performed while pressing the side of the just cut surface of the second substrate G2 with a backup roller.
  • FIG. 13 is a diagram showing the order in which unit display panels are taken out for a mother board having unit display panels arranged in two rows in the X direction and four rows in the Y direction.
  • FIG. 13A shows a two-terminal panel
  • FIG. 13B shows a case of a three-terminal panel
  • FIG. 13C shows a case of a one-terminal panel.
  • the terminal cut surface Cb of the unit display panel (1) is a boundary portion with respect to the boundary (indicated by a circle in the figure) with the adjacent unit display panels (2) and (3). . Therefore, it is necessary to take out the unit display panel (1) first.
  • the unit display panel (2) is a boundary with the adjacent unit display panel (4)
  • the terminal cut surface Cb is a boundary.
  • the unit display panel (3) has a terminal cut surface Cb as a boundary with respect to the boundary between the adjacent unit display panels (4) and (5). At this time, either one of the unit display panels (2) and (3) may be taken out.
  • the unit display panel (2) can be removed first because it can be transported in one direction by taking out from the side closer to the front end of the mother substrate. ).
  • the unit display panel (3) is a boundary with the adjacent unit display panels (4) and (5), and the terminal cut surface Cb is a boundary. Therefore, the unit display panel (3) is then taken out.
  • the unit display panels are taken out in ascending order of numbers (1), (2),... (8) given to the unit display panels in FIG.
  • FIG. 14 is a diagram showing how the end material regions are attached to the extracted unit substrates (1) to (8). Any unit display panel can be taken out without adhering to the terminal cut surface Cb. Therefore, even if the end material adheres to the unit display panel, the end material can be surely removed by the additional break treatment after the hook 87 and the pusher 88 are used.
  • the priority order (1) and (2) is determined between the two unit display panels unless the substrate is transported. And take it out.

  • the boundary formed by the terminal cut surface Cb and the just cut surface Ca does not exist. In this case, the extraction order does not matter.
  • the substrate processing method of the present invention can be used for scribing a mother substrate for a liquid crystal panel.
