Abstract

The present invention provides a spin-processing apparatus less likely to produce a mist when an object to be processed is rotated. The apparatus is characterized in that it comprises a cup body having a lower cup and an upper cup mounted relative to the lower cup to be up/down movable, a rotation body retaining the object mounted within the cup body, a step motor rotationally driving the rotation body, an exhaust tube connected to a bottom of the lower cup to allow a gas in the cup body to be exhausted, and a scatter-proof cover provided within the upper cup and mounted above the rotation body.
