Abstract
The present invention provides a turntable and a substrate transporting system. The turntable includes an interconnecting device and a transporting platform which is moved by the interconnecting device in a way that the transporting platform is docked to a substrate exporting apparatus or importing apparatus, alternatively. Wherein the transporting platform picks up the glass substrate from the substrate exporting apparatus when docked thereto, and then transporting the substrate horizontally to the substrate importing apparatus in which the glass substrate is delivered as the transporting device is articulated thereto. The turntable device made in accordance with the present invention is properly arranged with a transporting platform to pick up, displace, and finally deliver the substrate. Since all these operations are streamlined, as a result, no waiting area is needed so as to effectively reduce the area for establishing the production line.
