Abstract
The invention is directed to an electronic component mounting apparatus which is applicable to a case in which component feeding devices need not be provided on both sides of a carrying device respectively for reasons of types of electronic components or a setting space and increases an operating rate of a beam to enhance production efficiency. An electronic component mounting apparatus has a carrying device carrying a printed board, a component feeding device supplying electronic components, a pair of beams movable in one direction by drive sources, and mounting heads each having suction nozzles and movable along the beams by drive sources. The component feeding device is provided on only one side of the carrying device, and the suction nozzles provided on each of the mounting heads pick up electronic components from the component feeding device and mount the electronic components on a printed board by moving the mounting heads provided on both the beams between the printed board on the carrying device and the component feeding device by driving the drive sources respectively.
