Abstract
A substrate transfer system includes a substrate transfer robot. The substrate transfer robot is provided between a first apparatus and a second apparatus which has a wall provided opposite to the substrate transfer robot and having an opening on the wall. The substrate transfer robot is configured to transfer a substrate from the first apparatus to the second apparatus via the opening and includes a base having a first axis, an arm body, and a hand. The arm body has a proximal end and a distal end and is connected to the base at the proximal end to rotate around the first axis. The substrate transfer robot includes a minimum distance from the first axis to an outermost portion of the arm body and the hand in a radius direction from the first axis being larger than a distance between the first axis and the opening on the wall.
