  • Method for drying a substrate
    Patent number: 6216709
    Abstract: A method for drying workpieces in accordance with our invention includes the step of immersing the workpieces in a liquid, holding the workpieces with a first holding mechanism, slowly draining the liquid from the container until a first portion of the workpieces is exposed and dried, holding the workpieces with a second holding means at the first portion, and draining the remainder of the liquid from the container. Because of this, a drying portion of the workpiece is not held by a wet holding mechanism.
