Abstract

A driving belt inspection device and method for a wafer transfer module is disclosed. The driving belt inspection device for a wafer transfer module includes: a data receiving unit for receiving current data of a motor connected to a driving belt; a calculation unit for calculating the rate of change of instantaneous current of the motor according to the received current data and acquiring a calculated value for inspection according to the calculated rate of change of instantaneous current of the motor; and a result determination unit for determining, if the calculated value is lower than a first reference value, that the driving belt is in a normal operation state, and determining, if the calculated value is higher than a second reference value, that the driving belt is in an abnormal operation state.
