Embodiments provide for a handheld device with a unified desktop for integrating the functionality of the handheld device with a larger computer system. When connected to a peripheral display and/or a display of the larger computer system, the handheld device provides a unified desktop displayed across the screen(s) of the handheld device and the peripheral display. The unified desktop unifies the functionality provided by the larger computer system and the handheld functionality, e.g., communication applications (e.g., phone, SMS, MMS). A user can seamlessly interact with applications, e.g., open, move, close, receive notifications, on the unified desktop whether the applications are displayed on the screens of the handheld device, or the peripheral display of the larger computer system.

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 mounting machine, including a component transfer device, having a component mounting tool configured to collect and mount a component, a mounting head configured to hold the component mounting tool, and a head driving mechanism configured to horizontally drive the mounting head, which performs a mounting work of mounting the component collected from a component supply device on a predetermined coordinate position of a board carried in and positioned by a board conveyance device, and a control device configured to control the mounting work, and configured to implement a thermal correction process for reducing an influence on mounting accuracy of the component, of which influence being caused by thermal deformation due to a temperature change in at least one of the head driving mechanism and the mounting head.

A linear motion device includes: a base that extends in a reference direction; a linear guide mechanism that includes a guide rail fixed to the base and extending in the reference direction and a slider supported movably on the guide rail along the reference direction; a moving body that is fixed to the slider and that is movable in the reference direction together with the slider; a linear motor that includes a stator fixed to the base, the stator including a magnet row and extending in the reference direction, and a mover including a plurality of coils provided with a certain gap from the stator; and a heat transfer body that is disposed between the moving body and the mover and that is connected to the moving body and the mover, and the heat transfer body extends in a direction away from the linear guide mechanism.

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.

A component mounting machine includes a head having multiple pickup members, a moving device for moving the head, at least one feeder, and a control device. The feeder is configured to receive correction values for sets of the multiple pickup members, set a target feeding amount for the number of sets based on the received correction values for the number of sets, and sequentially feed components for the number of sets in a predetermined direction with each set target feeding amount. The control device is configured to acquire a positional deviation amount of the multiple pickup members in the predetermined direction for each set, and transmit the correction values for the number of sets based on the acquired positional deviation amount for the number of sets to the feeder so that the feeder collectively receives the correction values for the number of sets at a predetermined timing.

The feeder management device is a device that manages selection of a tape feeder to be set at each set position defined for each component in a component feeding unit of a component-mounting device. The feeder management device includes a memory unit and a feeder selection management unit. The memory unit stores list information indicating, for each component, whether or not to use a tape feeder of a special type among a plurality of tape feeders different in method of supplying the component storage tape, the tape feeder of the special type supplying the component storage tape easily. The feeder selection management unit refers to the list information stored in the memory unit, and manages selection of the tape feeder for each component, the selection corresponding to each set position in the component feeding unit of the component-mounting device.

Disclosed is a warpage suppressing reflow oven, which comprises a reflow oven body, where a perforated steel plate circulating device comprising a perforated steel plate is disposed at a reflow-oven inner oven. A plurality of downdraft modules is arranged in the perforated steel plate, and the downdraft acting forces thereof face the upper panel. More than one air extractor is communicated with the plurality of downdraft modules via a plurality of pipelines. Under actuation of the air extractors, the downdraft modules generate downdraft acting forces to the bottom surfaces of the products, so that the products are flatly attached to the universal perforated carriers without warpage in a heat soldering process. Thereby, more uniform heating of the products and better contact of solder joints and effectively improving the yield of reflow soldering operations are achieved.

A part verification system includes sensors for detecting tapes, a reader which reads identification information from a recording part provided to a reel, and a memory part which stores part verification information. The system further includes a part verification part which performs verification updating processing for determining whether or not the tape is mounted on the tape feeder at the set position corresponding to the identification information, and updating tape presence or absence information at the set position when the tape is mounted, a tape monitoring part for determining whether or not the tape is mounted with respect to each tape feeder during a period which differs from a period where the verification updating processing is performed, and a notification part which performs notification to request reading of the identification information relating to the tape from the recording part when the tape is mounted on the tape feeder.

A method for a heating device suitable for heating at least one soldered joint between an electronic component including at least a first contact mound and a printed circuit board. The soldered joint on the one hand securing the electronic component to the printed circuit board and on the other hand, while providing electrical continuity, the electronic component also having an electronic-component width, and an electronic-component thickness, wherein it includes an electrical-connection suitable for being coupled to an electrical power supply and a heater suitable for reaching a temperature at least equal to the melting point of the solder.
