<p>A surface height of a protective tape joined to a wafer mounted and held on a separation table is detected, a lowering operation distance of a needle is calculated based on such detected information, and a lowering operation amount for approaching a joining member to the protective tape until the separation tape winded around the joining member contacts the protective tape is calculated. A separating site is formed in the protective tape and the protective tape is separated while controlling a height of each member based on the calculated lowering operation amount.</p> |
