A wafer processing apparatus (10), for processing a wafer (20) with a surface protective film (110) attached on the front surface (21) on which at least one circuit pattern is formed, includes a dicing tape application unit (30) for attaching a dicing tape (3) on a frame (36) and the wafer, a surplus dicing tape take-up unit (40) for taking up the surplus part of the dicing tape attached on the frame and the wafer and a surface protective film peeling unit (50) for peeling the surface protective film from the wafer using a peeling tape (4). At least one of the dicing tape application unit, the surplus dicing tape Lake-up unit and the surface protective film peeling unit is slidably arranged in that order on common rails (91, 92). As a result, tape can be loaded and the maintenance work on each unit can be carried out easily. |
