A transfer device 17 in a semiconductor processing system includes first and second actuation mechanisms 9 A, 9 having first and second support sections movable on first and second vertical planes, respectively, the latter being parallel with each other. First and second movable blocks 18 A, 18 B are supported on the first and second support sections so that they may be horizontally moved by the first and second actuation mechanisms. Disposed on the first and second movable blocks are first and second handling mechanism 19 A, 19 B capable of extension and contraction for handling a processing subject substrate W. A control section 20 controls the operation of the first and second actuation mechanisms so that the first and second movable blocks may not interfere with each other.
