Abstract:
1. A calculating apparatus, comprising: an acquiring portion that acquires a wafer center position, which is a center position of a wafer placed on an alignment apparatus and having a marker for angle acquisition, and a wafer angle, which is an angle corresponding to the marker; and a calculating portion that calculates a rotational angle by which the wafer is to be rotated by the alignment apparatus, an approach angle, which is an angle of a direction in which a transfer robot for transferring the wafer is to approach the wafer, and a distance between the wafer after rotation according to the rotational angle and the transfer robot by using the wafer center position and the wafer angle, wherein the transfer robot retrieves the wafer at a predetermined position and a predetermined angle from the alignment apparatus, by approaching the wafer after rotation in a direction corresponding to the approach angle and according to the distance, the acquiring portion comprises: the acquiring portion has two or more image capturing units that capture images of different areas of the wafer placed on the alignment apparatus, and the acquiring unit acquires the wafer center position and the wafer angle by using at least one image including the marker among two or more images of the wafer captured by the two or more image capturing units.
