Abstract

An object is to reduce the field shielding effect of a paddle during plating. There is provided an apparatus for plating that is configured to plate a substrate and comprises a plating tank; an anode placed in the plating tank; a rotation mechanism configured to rotate the substrate in a first direction and in a second direction that is opposite to the first direction; and a control device configured to control the rotation mechanism, such that a time period when the substrate is rotated in the first direction becomes equal to a time period when the substrate is rotated in the second direction or such that a time integrated value of a rotation speed in the first direction becomes equal to a time integrated value of a rotation speed in the second direction.
