Abstract: In a conditioning method conditions interiors of a plurality of process chambers of a substrate processing apparatus, conditioning of the interior of the first process chamber is performed if a first integrated value set in connection with the process of the substrate reaches a set value N1. The second process chamber is set in a standby state when the conditioning of the first process chamber starts and the series of processes is stopped. By determining whether a second integrated value set in connection with process of the substrate in the second process chamber is equal to or greater than a set value N2, count of a third integrated value in the second process chamber is started if the second integrated value is equal to or greater than the set value N2. A conditioning of the second process chamber is performed if the third integrated value exceeds a set value N3.

The insulative tube 21 is made of a polyamide resin. A cap 30 for covering the front end side of the insulative tube 21 is disposed so as to prevent the intrusion of the rain water into the air vent 21a.

Abstract: A sheet-testing apparatus including kneading rolls, a frame feeder, sheet applicator, foreign material detector, a frame with a light transparent window and a cutter for cutting a sheet. A sheet thickness detection apparatus outputs an electric signal to a memory. A kneading apparatus has a pair of heating rolls separated by a gap. The directions and speeds of rotations of the rolls are adjustable. A sensor detects the gap and a bank sensor detects the condition of a bank in the gap. The distance between the rolls, their temperatures, rotations, and speeds are automatically controlled. A pair of blades peel a sheet from the sheet-winding roll. Material dropped through the gap between the heating rolls is returned to a point above the gap. A cutting device has a length of wire sprung onto a rolled sheet to sever the sheet. A heating roll cleaning device brings cleaning rolls into sliding engagement with the heating rolls.
