Component mounting device and method of mounting component

A component mounting apparatus for mounting a component on a substrate includes a pair of chuck claws that sandwich and grip the component; and adapters that are detachably mounted on the chuck claws and grip the component in place of the chuck claws. The adapters are mounted on the chuck claws in accordance with the component that is an object to be mounted and the component is gripped by using the adapters.

Component mounting apparatus

A position and orientation of an electronic component attitude are recognized, a mounting head is moved above the electronic component, a rotator is horizontally rotated so that a lower surface of the electronic component is oriented in a direction opposite to a pusher, the electronic component of the fallen-down attitude is sucked and held by the nozzle by lowering a component holder, a attitude of the electronic component that is held is changed to a stand-up attitude by vertically rotating the component holder, leads of the electronic component of which the attitude is changed to the stand-up attitude and insertion holes of the substrate into which the leads are inserted are positioned, and the leads are inserted into the insertion holes of the substrate by pushing the electronic component toward the substrate by causing the pusher to abut against an upper surface of the electronic component of the stand-up attitude.

Electronic component mounting method and electronic component mounting apparatus

A component supply device includes a posture maintainer and a pair of cutting members. The posture maintainer includes a pair of grip members, each of which includes a tip end portion that extends in a traveling direction of a component holding tape. The posture maintainer maintains the posture of a component by gripping a body portion of the component having been supplied to a component supply position with the body portion interposed between the tip end portions of the pair of the grip members. The pair of cutting members cuts a lead portion of the component having been gripped by the pair of grip members with the lead portion interposed between the pair of cutting members in a direction intersecting a traveling direction of the component holding tape.

Component supply device, component mounter, and component-mounted board manufacturing method

There is provided an electronic component mounter configured to include a supplier holder in which a radial lead type electronic component supplier can be mounted, and to cause a mounting head to hold a radial lead type electronic component so as to mount the component on a board positioned by a board holder. The electronic component mounter includes a tape guide passage that guides a tape body after the radial lead type electronic components are picked up from the tape body. The electronic component supplier is configured to further include a posture converter that converts a posture of the tape body from a posture perpendicular to a horizontal plane to a posture parallel to the horizontal plane, after the radial lead type electronic components are picked up from the tape body, and that introduces the tape body to the tape guide passage.

Electronic component mounter

Provided is a method for mounting an electronic component having a plurality of board insert type leads on a board. The method includes a holding process which chucks one of the plurality of leads of the electronic component to hold the electronic component, and an inserting process which inserts the leads of the electronic component held by the mounting head respectively into lead insert holes provided in the board.

Device for mounting component

An apparatus has a holder that receives a component from a component supply and then places the component on a substrate. In operation, it is determined whether the holder would make an interference with another component already mounted on the substrate. If this judgement is affirmative, mounting of the component held by the holder is prohibited. If, on the other hand, this judgement is negative, the component held by the holder is mounted onto the substrate.
