CONSTITUTION:A holder case 1 is provided in the front and rear surfaces with inlet/output ports 13a, 13b, respectively, and each cassette table 9 is composed of a first cassette table portion 9a for receiving a first cassette 3a and a second cassette table portion 9b for a second cassette 3b. A robot in a first process brings in and takes out the cassette 3a through the inlet/outlet port 13a, and a robot in a second process brings in and takes out the cassette 3b through the inlet/outlet port 13b. Thus, two kinds of cassettes can be handled in a cassette holder, permitting reduction of cost and installation area of the holder.
