Abstract
In a component mounting method and apparatus capable of mounting components on a board having a non-planar component mounting surface, a board holding table in a board holding device is turned based on board holding device information and board information to direct a normal line to a mounting portion on the non-planar component mounting surface in the vertical direction. Thus, after being picked up and moved by a component loading device onto the normal line to the mounting portion, a component can be mounted through a movement of the component loading device in the vertical direction only. Further, compensation amounts for the position of the mounting portion are calculated based on a turn amount, the board holding device information and the board information, and a compensated mounting position is calculated from the compensation amounts and the board information accurately in the horizontal and vertical directions.
