Abstract

Disclosed are an absorber, in which the positions of absorption pads are automatically adjusted according to sizes of substrates, and an apparatus for fabricating a liquid crystal display panel having the same. The absorber includes an absorption plate gate attached to a robot arm having a transfer hand through a turn unit; and an absorption unit assembly mounted on the lower surface of the absorption plate, and the absorption unit assembly includes a middle absorption unit; a left absorption unit located at the left side of the middle absorption unit; a right absorption unit located at the right side of the middle absorption unit; an absorption support unit to guide moving routes of the absorption units and fix the absorption units to the absorption plate; and absorption pads respectively formed on the absorption units such that the positions of the absorption pads are adjusted according to sizes of substrates to allow the absorption pads to absorb the substrates.
