Abstract: Edge trimming is performed on a wafer while a cleaning liquid is supplied to the center of a face side of the wafer and the wafer is rotated to form a film of the cleaning liquid that covers the face side of the wafer. The film of the cleaning liquid prevents the face side of the wafer from being dried, lowering the probability that swarf will be introduced into devices on the face side of the wafer. In addition, the consumption of the cleaning liquid can be reduced compared with a step of performing edge trimming on the wafer while supplying a curtain of cleaning liquid to the entire face side of the wafer.

Abstract: A fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) molding system in which FRP material, having stacked prepregs, is molded to manufacture an arc-shaped FRP component. The FRP molding system comprises inner and outer jig plates, a partial pressing device, and transfer devices. The jig plates are arc-shaped members having outer and inner surfaces that respectively fit with inner and outer surface shapes of the FRP component. The FRP material is sandwiched between the jig plates to form an integrated jig plate. The partial pressing device intermittently compresses a portion of the integrated jig plate in a radial direction orthogonal to an arc of the FRP component so that the FRP component is partially molded. The transfer devices intermittently move the compressed portion of the integrated jig plate by the partial pressing device. By repeating the partial pressing and the transport, the entire integrated jig plate is compressed to form the FRP component.
