An apparatus for manufacturing a liquid crystal display device is disclosed. A first robot arm at a loading side of the thru-conveyor receives a substrate coated with photoresist and conveys the substrate to a thru-conveyor. A softbake hot plate (SHP) at the unloading side of the thru-conveyor removes solvent from the substrate. A cool plate lowers the substrate temperature from which the solvent is removed. A buffer temporarily stores the substrate having the lowered temperature. A second robot arm between the thru-conveyor, the SHP, the cool plate and a loading side of the buffer, loads/unloads the substrate. A temperature control unit adjusts the substrate temperature unloaded from the buffer. A third robot arm between the unloading side of the buffer, the temperature control unit and an exposure unit that exposes the substrate, loads/unloads the substrate.
