Abstract
When an object to be heated is heated without temperature nonuniformity in its heated surface, unwanted thermal deformation can be suppressed, and thermal processing precision can be improved. For this purpose, a heat transfer plate for heating a plate-like object to be heated, and a base plate are stacked. A rod heater as a heat source is inserted in the heat transfer plate. The heat transfer plate has a larger thermal conductivity and smaller creep than the base plate.
