Interlock apparatus for a transfer machine

Abstract

A processing system for processing a substrate. The processing system includes a plurality of processing machines, a machine movable along a transfer path for transferring the substrate to the machines, a drive unit for driving the machine, and a control unit. The control unit includes a memory for storing a teaching threshold in a teaching mode and a practical operation threshold in a practical operation mode that is higher than the teaching threshold when a moving parameter of the drive unit exceeds a given value. The control unit also includes a controller monitoring a parameter representing a moving state of the drive unit to stop the drive unit when the parameter exceeds the practical operation threshold in the practical operation mode or when the parameter exceeds the teaching threshold in the teaching mode.
