Abstract

A process for producing a substrate 1 having a base-metal plating layer, which includes an immersion step for immersing the substrate 1 in a plating solution contained in a plating tank 33, to thereby form a base-metal plating layer; a washing step for removing the substrate 1 from the plating tank 33, transferring the substrate 1 to a washing tank, and washing the substrate 1; and a cooling step for applying a cooling liquid to the substrate 1 during at least a portion of the period during which the substrate is transferred to a position where the washing step is carried out after completing the immersion step, to thereby cool the substrate 1. An apparatus for carrying out the above process is also disclosed.
