Abstract:
An apparatus includes: a coating module for applying a coating liquid to each wafer and discharging a removing liquid from a nozzle toward a beveled portion of the wafer under rotation; an imaging module; and a controller for controlling: the imaging module to image outer end and rear surfaces of the wafer; obtaining a height dimension of an outer edge of a coating film with respect to an inner edge of the beveled portion based on the imaging result; determining whether or not the obtained dimension is an allowable value; if the result is negative, resetting the number of revolutions of the wafer based on the obtained dimension and a first reference data; controlling the coating module to again perform the application and removal operations; performing the determination process; and if the result is positive, storing the reset number of revolutions in a storage part.
