Inspection device, inspection method and non-transitory storage medium for inspecting deformation of substrate holding member, and substrate processing system including the inspection device

摘要

Disclosed is an inspection device for inspecting deformation of a substrate holding member of a substrate transport apparatus. The substrate holding member is moved in the forward-and-backward direction relative to the transport base to pass across a light path of the detection light formed by an optical detection unit. The position, with respect to a direction transverse to the forward-and-backward direction, of the substrate holding member is detected based on a detection signal of the optical detection unit. Based on a correlation data expressing the relationship between a first parameter indicative of a change of a position of the substrate holding member with respect to the forward-and-backward direction and a second parameter indicative of the change of the position of the substrate holding member with respect to the direction transverse to the forward-and-backward direction, whether or not deformation occurs in the substrate holding member is judged.
