Abstract
A maintenance device is applied to a bulk feeder including a feeder main body section, a track member, a vibration device, and a cavity group, and includes an initialization section and a vibration force control section. When the use time of the bulk feeder elapses a predetermined time, the initialization section returns a supply component existing in the cavity group toward a receiving region, and sets the cavity group to an initialization state in which the supply component does not exist in the cavity group. The vibration force control section increases the vibration force to be applied by the vibration device to the track member in the initialization section as compared with a case where the supply component is returned from the supply region toward the receiving region in order to adjust the number of the supply components conveyed to the cavity group when a board product is produced.
