A production management device, such as a production management computer, determines a production sequence of plural types of substrates in order to produce the substrates consecutively on a product type-by-type basis by using a component mounter including component supply devices. The production management device includes a main control unit for determining a production sequence of substrates such that, where a time from start to completion of off-line setup of all the component supply devices to be used for a single product type of substrate is defined as an off-line setup time, a sum of the off-line setup times for two product types of substrates to be consecutively produced is balanced over an entire period of consecutive production.

An angle sensor of a tape feeder includes a magnetic body that rotates in conjunction with the rotation of a sprocket, a magnetic sensor that outputs a detection signal corresponding to the angle of the magnetic body with respect to the feeder main body, and an angle calculating section that performs offset processing for adjusting an origin of the detection signal using a preset offset value, gain processing that adjusts the magnitude of the detection signal using a preset gain value, and that calculates the angle of the magnetic body based on the adjusted detection signal. The control device performs correction processing for correcting at least one of the offset value or the gain value based on the detected signals outputted from the magnetic sensor.

A component mounting system that includes a component mounter in which multiple component supply units are detachably arranged in a supply area and mounts components on a board based on a job. The system performs a preparatory arrangement control for dividing the component supply units required for the job into multiple, and controlling the unit exchange device to make an arrangement of the component supply units in each group match an arrangement order in the supply area, and a supply arrangement control for controlling the unit exchange device to automatically exchange the component supply units, and to arrange the component supply units required for the job after switching in the supply area.

A component supply device includes a tape feeder configured to feed a tape including a storage configured to store a component and a cover tape configured to cover an upper side of the storage, and a press including a columnar protrusion configured to press an upper surface of a portion of the cover tape that covers the storage.

A component supply unit set-up system includes a container warehouse configured to store multiple component containers for containing multiple components, a unit storage shed configured to store multiple component supply units used when the component, which is contained in the component container, is supplied in a mounting operation performed by a component mounter, a work table disposed between the container warehouse and the unit storage shed and used for a loading operation of loading the component supply unit with the component container, a container conveyance robot configured to convey the component container between the container warehouse and the work table, and a unit conveyance robot configured to convey the component supply unit between the unit storage shed and the work table.

A production management device, which manages a production schedule of a component mounting line, executes a remote operation mode for remotely operating a component mounter to perform a test operation according to an input operation of an operator, in addition to an automatic production mode in which an automated replacement operation of an automated replacement robot is managed according to the production schedule to produce a component mounting board. The production management device determines, when in the remote operation mode, whether a feeder configured to supply components necessary for the test operation is set in the component mounter, and when the feeder that supplies the necessary components is not set in the component mounter, moves the automated replacement robot to the component mounter and sets the feeder configured to supply the necessary components in the component mounter to cause the component mounter to perform the test operation.
