In a component mounting system, recovery processing is repeated until a recovery count number Nr is larger than or equal to a defined count number Nth in a case where a pickup defect of a component occurs, an elapsed time is measured from error stoppage of a component mounting machine to canceling of the error stoppage in which the component mounting machine is error-stopped when the recovery count number Nr is larger than or equal to the defined count number Nth, the defined count number Nth is increased within a range in which the defined count number does not exceed the upper limit value Nmax in a case where the elapsed time is shorter than a defined time Tth, and the defined count number Nth returns to an initial value in a case where the elapsed time is longer than or equal to the defined time Tth.

An electrical device includes two or more electrical components that configure an electrical circuit, at least one or more mechanical component that supports the two or more electrical components and is fixed to the two or more electrical components, and a position-adjustment structure that adjusts positions of the two or more electrical components relative to the one or more mechanical component with the at least two or more electrical components being united together, before the one or more mechanical component is fixed to the two or more electrical components.

A system including multiple inspection machines and an NG board discharge machine which moves an NG board to a checking position visible to a worker. The system acquires positional information of a circuit board during conveyance, and stores the NG board by associating a work result for the NG board with the positional information. In this manner, the positional information of the NG board is acquired. Based on the positional information, it is determined whether or not the circuit board conveyed to the NG board discharge machine is the NG board. When the circuit board conveyed to the NG board discharge machine is the NG board, a checking-purpose working machine discharges the NG board to the checking position.

In a board work machine that performs board work with reference to a reference mark provided on a board, in a case of performing board work with respect to a board provided with overall reference mark and local area reference mark that acts as a reference for a local area as reference marks, when recognizing the reference marks by imaging, checking is performed as to whether a recognized reference mark is recognized correctly. For this checking, when checking whether the position deviation amount from a normal position and the relative position deviation amount of an imaging target identified as a reference mark is within the range of a set tolerance, set tolerances for a local area reference mark are smaller than set tolerances for an overall reference mark.

A display panel bonding device and a correction apparatus and method thereof. The correction apparatus includes: a fixture assembly including a first fixture and a second fixture coordinating with each other. The first fixture is provided with a first alignment mark, the second fixture is provided with a second alignment mark, and alignment between the first fixture and the second fixture is achieved via the first alignment mark and the second alignment mark; and an image acquisition assembly configured to acquire a first image of the first alignment mark of the first fixture and a second image of the second alignment mark of the second fixture respectively. The first image and the second image are used for acquiring an alignment parameter of the first alignment mark and the second alignment mark to correct alignment between the first fixture and the second fixture.

An electronic component supply device, comprising: a tape feeder configured to feed out a taped electronic component and supply an electronic component; and a holding mechanism arranged to handle the tape feeder and configured to hold a container for accommodating the taped electronic component supplied to the tape feeder, in which the holding mechanism is configured to hold the container having a width larger than the width of the tape feeder.

The disclosure is and includes at least an apparatus, system and method for a rotary table suitable to receive surface mount technology (SMT) components onto a circuit board associated therewith. The apparatus, system and method may include a frame suitable for insertion into a pick and place machine, and having a receiving inset therein; a fixture suitable for removable insertion to the receiving inset; a plurality of roller bearings interactively associated with the fixture, and which impart a low friction roll to at least a perimeter portion of the fixture; and at least one guide on the frame suitable to at least partially positional maintain the circuit board associated with the fixture.

An assembly machine comprising a continuous circuitous track; a dispensing head system configured to at least partially assemble products, wherein the dispensing head system includes one or more dispensing heads movable around the continuous circuitous track; a product conveyance system extending between a first location of the continuous circuitous track and a second location of the continuous circuitous track and a placement module, the placement module including a first positioning system configured to move along a first axis that intersects with the product conveyance system, wherein the first positioning system is configured to receive a first of the products from the product conveyance system and move the first of the products from the product conveyance system to a first placement location; and a second positioning system configured to move along a second axis that intersects with the product conveyance system, wherein the second positioning system is configured to receive a second of the products from the product conveyance system and move the second of the products from the product conveyance system to a second placement location.

A system and method are directed to a fan board sled assembly comprising a fan circuit board including a first end and an opposing second end, a fan cage module including a front section for receiving and removably securing the first end of the fan circuit board to the fan cage module, and a guide bracket including a base section for receiving and removably securing the second end of the fan circuit board to the guide bracket. The fan cage module further includes a back section for receiving one or more fan bodies. The combined fan circuit board, fan cage module and guide bracket are a single integrated unit insertable and extractable from a chassis opening of a computer chassis.

A system and methods are provided for assisting with manual assembly of a printed circuit board (PCB), including a camera, oriented to capture a camera image of some or all of the PCB, and a processor configured to determine according to the camera image, a registration between a physical position of the PCB and a PCB layout; to receive a PCB worklist of tasks to perform on components of the PCB; to determine, according to the registration and the worklist, a position on the PCB at which a task is to be performed; and responsively to generate an overlay image to visually indicate the position on the PCB at which the task is to be performed.
