Abstract

Disclosed is a substrate treating system and a substrate transporting method. For instance, it is assumed that an indexer block, a first treating block, and a second treating block are arranged in this order. In this case, for transporting a substrate treated in the second treating block to an indexer block, the substrate is necessarily sent through the first treating block without any treatment in the first treating block. However, the first treating block and the second treating block are both connected to the indexer block. Therefore, transportation of the substrate is performable directly from the second treating block to the indexer block without through the first treating block. Therefore, reduction in throughput is suppressible.
