Abstract
An automatic electronic component mounting apparatus for automatically mounting electronic components on the printed circuit board includes an electronic component supply mechanism for supplying an electronic component to a predetermined position, at least one mounting head movable in a Y direction, a first controlling mechanism for moving the mounting head in the Y direction, a movable frame movable in an X direction, a second controlling mechanism for moving the movable frame in the X direction and controlling the position of the movable frame in the X direction, a support base supported to the movable frame, and a table carrying a printed circuit board and turnable in a .theta. direction. The table is rotatably supported on the support base so that when the X directional position of the movable frame is controlled by the second controlling mechanism, the X directional position of the table is also controlled. A third controlling mechanism is provided for controlling a .theta. directional position of the table. The mounting head holding an electronic component is fed to the predetermined position by the mechanism to mount the electronic component on the printed circuit board.
