Abstract
A robot includes a guide, a mover, a hand, a deformation acquirer, a orientation adjuster, and a controller. The mover is installed to the guide and movable in a direction that the guide guides along. The hand is installed to the mover and holds a substrate. The deformation acquirer acquires information on a deformation of the guide. The orientation adjuster adjusts an orientation of the hand according to the deformation of the guide acquired by the deformation acquirer. The controller controls operation of the orientation adjuster. The controller adjusts the orientation of the hand performing a holding operation on the substrate to be transferred by using the orientation adjuster based on the information on the deformation of the guide.
