Abstract
A device for inserting n number of the electronic components into n number of housing recess in a carrier tape at once includes an imaging device that images, at an imaging position provided at an upstream side of the insertion position, a portion of the carrier tape that contains the n number of housing recesses; and a processor that determines, on the basis of an image captured by the imaging device, a two-dimensional position of each of the n number of housing recesses contained in the image relative to a reference point in the image, and that causes a two-dimensional position of the insertion position for the n number of the housing recesses that have been imaged by the imaging device to be corrected in accordance with the captured image so as to mitigate positional deviations of the n number of the housing recesses in the tape.
