Restoration method for plasma processing apparatus
According to one embodiment, a restoration method for a plasma processing apparatus is provided. The method includes performing application of a restoration liquid from a coating part onto a consumed region on a component for serving as a constituent element of the plasma processing apparatus, by controlling positions of the component and the coating part, and an application amount of the restoration liquid; and solidifying the restoration liquid applied on the component.
1. A restoration method for a plasma processing apparatus, the method comprising:
acquiring first component shape information about a shape of a component in a brand new state, the component serving as a constituent element of the plasma processing apparatus, and second component shape information about a shape of the component after use in a plasma process;
acquiring a consumed region of the component from a difference between the first component shape information and the second component shape information;
performing an application of a restoration liquid from a coating part onto the consumed region on the component by controlling positions of the component and the coating part, and an application amount of the restoration liquid in accordance with the consumed region; and
solidifying the restoration liquid applied on the component.
2. The restoration method for a plasma processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first component shape information and the second component shape information include image data picked up by a camera, and
the consumed region is acquired from a difference between the first component shape information and the second component shape information.
3. The restoration method for a plasma processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein, in performing the application of the restoration liquid, an application amount of the restoration liquid is a same amount for all positions on the component.
4. The restoration method for a plasma processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the first component shape information and the second component shape information include information about a depression or protrusion on the component acquired by a three-dimensional measuring instrument,
the consumed region is acquired from a difference between the first component shape information and the second component shape information, and
an application amount of the restoration liquid is changed in accordance with a depth of the consumed region at each position on the component.
5. The restoration method for a plasma processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the restoration liquid contains liquid SiC or SOG solution.
