- the substrate reversing unit 67 further rotates along the direction of the reversal axis M, and the substrate 5 is reversed.
- the substrate 5 is disposed on a conveyor roll (not shown), and the substrate reversing unit 67 does not contact the conveyor roll. For this reason, the reversing mechanism 65 is located below the substrate 5.
- the suction of the suction part 66 is released, whereby the holding of the substrate 5 is released, and the substrate 5 is transported by the second substrate transport mechanism 62. Then, the reversing mechanism 65 returns to the position shown in FIG. 5A and reverses the other substrates 5 that are sequentially conveyed by the same operation.
