An electronic parts-mounting apparatus includes at least one mounting head with a plurality of sucking nozzles mounted thereon extending downward for use in sucking an electronic part. The at least one mounting head is intermittently moved by rotation of a rotary table and stopped at a plurality of stop positions including a mounting station at which an electronic part is mounted nozzles mounted on the mounting head, at least one on a circuit board by each of the plurality of sucking nozzle-adjusting station at which a sucking nozzle corresponding to the electronic part is selected from the plurality of sucking nozzles and the sucking nozzle corresponding to the electronic part is placed in a predetermined active position in which the sucking nozzle corresponding to the electronic part is capable of a sucking operation before sucking of the electronic part, and a sucking station at which the electronic part is sucked by the sucking nozzle corresponding to the electronic part, in a mentioned order at least with respect to the mounting station, the at least one nozzle-adjusting station, and the sucking station. An excessively downward projecting state of any of the plurality of the sucking nozzles in the active position is detected between the mounting station and the at least one nozzle-adjusting station.

Electronic parts-mounting apparatus

An electronic parts automatic mounting apparatus wherein a plurality of removing nozzles are disposed on a removing head portion, and a tipped electronic part held on the suitable removing nozzle is recognized by a recognizing means to correct a deviation in position thereof, whereby mounting accuracy of the part on a print substrate is enhanced and the recognition of the tipped electronic part held by the removing nozzle by the recognizing means can be positively carried out.
