Abstract:
A base material processing apparatus includes first and second edge sensors and a displacement amount calculation part. The first edge sensor acquires a first detection result (R 1 ) by detecting the position of an edge of a base material in a width direction at a first detection position. The second edge sensor acquires a second detection result (R 2 ) by detecting the position of the edge of the base material at a second detection position. The displacement amount calculation part calculates the amount of displacement in the position of the base material in the transport direction or the amount of difference in the transporting speed of the base material on the basis of the first and second detection results (R 1,  R 2 ). Thus, the amount of displacement in the position or the amount of difference in the transporting speed can be detected without depending on images such as register marks.

Claim (Index 13):
A detection method for detecting an amount of displacement in position of a long band-like base material in a transport direction or an amount of difference in transporting speed of the base material while transporting the base material in a longitudinal direction of the base material along a predetermined transport path, the method comprising:\n a) acquiring a first detection result by continuously or intermittently detecting a position of an edge of a base material in a width direction at a first detection position in said transport path; b) acquiring a second detection result by continuously or intermittently detecting the position of the edge of the base material in the width direction at a second detection position that is located downstream of said first detection position in said transport path; and c) calculating an amount of displacement in position of the base material in the transport direction or an amount of difference in transporting speed of the base material on the basis of said first detection result and said second detection result.
