A feeder automatic distribution control device includes a feeder replenishment section that sequentially replenishes feeders for replenishment, which mounting modules are to be replenished with, a feeder recovery section that sequentially recovers feeders for recovery, which are to be recovered from the mounting modules, a transport lane that transports the feeders for replenishment and the feeders for recovery between each of the feeder replenishment section, the feeder recovery section and the mounting modules, and a control section that controls replenishment and recovery of the feeders for replenishment and the feeders for recovery that are transported in the transport lane, and the control section performs control so that the replenishment of the feeders for replenishment and the recovery of the feeders for recovery are concurrently performed in a sequential manner from mounting modules that are on either an upstream side or a downstream side of the component mounting line.

Feeder automatic distribution control device and feeder automatic distribution control method

A bulk feeder for supplying electronic components to a supply position which is provided with a storage section for storing multiple electronic components in a loose state and a supply passage for guiding the electronic components stored in that storage section to an electronic component supply position while arranged in a single line, a section of the supply passage is a section which has flexibility and groove block member which includes an electronic component supply position is moved using the flexibility of that section with flexibility. By this, it is possible to perform correction of the supply position and it is possible to suitably align the electronic component holding position and supply position.

Bulk feeder with flexible portion

A component sorting and wasting device is provided with a plurality of waste boxes having respective IDs and arranged at predetermined locations for receiving components to be wasted therein and a component mounting mechanism being capable of picking up components from a component supply device in mounting the picked-up components on circuit boards and of sorting and wasting each of components which are recognized as being unable to be mounted on the circuit boards, in one of the waste boxes selected for the component to be wasted.
