Abstract

A substrate transfer robot includes a robot body including a first hand having a first substrate placing part on which a substrate is placed and a first substrate holding mechanism configured to hold and release the substrate, and a robot controller. The robot controller controls a speed of the first hand such that an absolute value of a first maximum speed or an absolute value of a first maximum acceleration during a first period after the first hand starts retreating until the substrate is held by the first substrate holding mechanism is lower than an absolute value of a second maximum speed or an absolute value of a second acceleration during a second period after the substrate is held until the first hand ends retreating.
