Abstract
When determining whether an insertion component provided with a positioning-use protruding section and a surface-mounting-use electrode section can be mounted onto a circuit board provided with a positioning hole into which the positioning-use protruding section is inserted and a land for connecting the surface-mounting-use electrode section, an image is captured of the positioning-use protruding sections and the surface-mounting-use electrode sections of the insertion component either separately or simultaneously by a component imaging camera, and the positions of the positioning-use protruding sections and the positions of the surface-mounting-use electrode sections are recognized by processing the captured image. The position deviation amount between the surface-mounting-use electrode sections of the insertion component and the lands of the circuit board is calculated, and by determining whether the position deviation amount is within a tolerance range, it is determined whether the insertion component can be mounted on the circuit board.
