A component-mounting apparatus is provided with a pallet-carrying unit that carries a pallet, holding boards, within the apparatus. The pallet-carrying unit carries the pallet to a loading unit for feeding boards to the pallet, an ACF applying unit for applying an ACF tape onto the boards, a pre-press bonding unit for positioning components relative to the boards and bonding the components with a first pressing force, a final bonding unit for bonding the components to the boards with a second pressing force larger than the first pressing force so as to fix the components onto the boards, and an unloading unit for removing the boards, with the components mounted thereon, from the pallet. Then, the pallet-carrying unit returns the pallet from the unloading unit to the loading unit.

Component mounting apparatus and component mounting method

Provided is a construction including a stage having a suction hole for sucking an electronic component and fixing the same in position and position regulating suction hole for sucking an electronic component when the electronic component is regulated in position, a position regulating pawl for positioning the electronic component on the stage and a position regulating suction force control section capable of controlling a position regulating suction force when the electronic component is regulated in position on the stage.

Working method for holding a work object by suction

An object of the present invention, which is a printed circuit board housing apparatus, is to allow the state of the printed circuit boards inside a rack (fully loaded or in mid-process, or the like) to be determined at a glance from outside the rack, so as to ensure that printed circuit boards are controlled in each rack. To achieve this object, the printed circuit board housing apparatus pertaining to the present invention comprises a display mark on the exterior component of the rack side plates for displaying the state of the printed circuit boards inside the rack, and a shutter for switching the display of the display mark, as well as a drive component for sliding the shutter.
