Abstract
A component mounting method used in a system with a plurality of component mounting apparatuses includes reading out a substrate ID of a substrate and detecting whether the substrate is in a state of being able to be inserted or removed from one of the component mounting apparatuses. If the substrate is not in a state of being able to be inserted or removed, the substrate ID of the substrate is delivered by an upstream component mounting apparatus. If the substrate is in a state of being able to be inserted or removed the substrate ID is read in a downstream component mounting apparatus.
