Abstract:
A method comprising the steps of:lowering substrates (3) for treatment into a treatment fluid (8) contained in a treatment device; lifting the substrates (3) by a first receiving device (1) partially out of the treatment fluid (8), wherein the first receiving device (1) remains in the treatment fluid (8) while the substrates are partially removed therefrom; lifting a second receiving device (2) relative to the first receiving device (1) in the vertical direction and thereby transferring the substrates (3) to the second receiving device (2); completely lifting the substrates (3) out of the treatment fluid (8) by the second receiving device which is completely dried at the time of transfer; draining drops forming at a lowest point (10) of the substrates (3) by a drop draining element (4) during lifting by the second receiving device (2).
