In the measurement device, electrical characteristics of a component can be measured adequately even if the component size is small. In the measurement device, at least a part of the component holding section is an antistatic section made of an antistatic material. Since the surface resistance of the antistatic section is large, it is possible to measure the electrical characteristics of a component in a state where the component is held by the antistatic section. Therefore, even if the size of the component is small, scattering of the component is prevented and the electrical characteristics can be adequately measured.

A malfunction determining device includes a head including a pickup member for picking up a component, a moving device configured to move the head, an inspection section, a determining section, and a notification section. The inspection section executes multiple inspections including a first inspection for performing a mounting operation under control of the head and the moving device to inspect whether the mounting operation is good or bad, and a second inspection for performing a calibration measurement of the head to inspect whether the calibration measurement is good or bad. The determining section determines presence or absence of a malfunction and a malfunction location in the head and the moving device based on a combination of results of the multiple inspections.

A method and a system for providing operator information in an Surface Mount Technology (SMT) system comprising an SMT information database, a SMT pick and place machine and an identity tag scanner, the method comprising: receiving a bin in said SMT pick and place machine, wherein said bin is adapted to comprise vertically oriented bin load units, wherein said bin load unit has an pallet identity tag attached to the bin load units upwards facing surface; starting SMT production on said SMT pick and place machine; scanning individual identity tags attached to bin load units comprising component tape reels to obtain bin load units IDs.

A board management system includes an extraction means and a generation means. The extraction means extracts a feature amount that depends on position deviation, for each of a plurality of specific components determined in advance based on a degree of variation in the component mounting position, among a plurality of components in a board image in which a board is captured. The generation means generates individual identification information to be used for identifying a board, from the extracted feature amount.

A parts mounting system (100) includes a parts mounting device (15) configured to mount parts (E) on a board (S), a parts storage (20) configured to store the parts supplied to the parts mounting device, and a controller (30) configured or programmed to perform a control to detect whether or not an unloading order can be changed based on whether or not the parts can be supplied to the parts mounting device in time when an order in which the parts are unloaded from the parts storage is changed.

A management device of the present disclosure is used in a mounting system including multiple mounting-related devices each including a display section configured to visually notify an operator of information and an attachment portion to which a member is attached and related to a process of mounting a component on a processing target object, and a moving work device configured to move between the multiple mounting-related devices to automatically attach and detach the member to and from the attachment portion. The management device includes a management control section configured to, when a mounting-related device is in a restriction state in which work of the operator on the mounting-related device is not accepted due to movement of the moving work device, display a display mode indicating the restriction state on the display section of the corresponding mounting-related device to notify the operator of the restriction state.

A storage case includes a storage space in which a component is to be accommodated, and is attached to a feeder to supply the component to a mounting device, the storage case includes a component takeout port in a side wall and extending in a vertical direction when the storage case is attached to the feeder, and an inclined surface within the storage space and extending to a lower edge of the component takeout port, which is at a bottom of the component takeout port when the storage case is attached to the feeder.

Data associated with an electronics component within a placement process performed by a placement machine is recorded by using the camera to image a machine-readable code located on the component tape which expresses data associated with an electronics component to be picked up by the placement head. The camera could be located within the feeder or the placement head.

A mounting machine management system in which a management server, a terminal device, and a mounting machine are connected via a communication network such that communication is possible. The management server is provided with an authorization ID transmitting device configured to transmit an authorization ID that allows operation required for adjustment of the mounting machine to the terminal device and the mounting machine. The mounting machine is provided with an authorization ID acquiring device configured to acquire the authorization ID that the terminal device received from the management server, and an operation permitting device configured to allow the operation required for adjustment of the mounting machine in a case in which the authorization ID acquired by the authorization ID acquiring device matches the authorization ID that the mounting machine received from the management server.

A component mounting device includes a component supply device that supplies a component to a component supply position by using a component housing tape, a head unit provided with a suction nozzle that can be moved up and down, a first image capturing unit that captures the component supplied to the component supply position, and a component posture determination unit that determines the posture of the component supplied to the component supply position. Based on a captured image captured by the first image capturing unit, the component posture determination unit determines whether the component takes an abnormal posture protruding from a component housing part in a direction intersecting the vertical direction on a horizontal plane in the component housing tape.
