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.

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.

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 work management system is applied to a work area in which a predetermined work is executed by a worker and a robot. The work management system includes a control section configured to control the robot such that a specified operation set in advance is included in an operation by the robot executing the predetermined work, an information acquisition section configured to acquire work information indicating a presence or absence of the specified operation in at least one of an execution result and an execution process of the predetermined work, and an identification section configured to identify whether a work subject of the predetermined work is the worker or the robot based on the work information acquired by the information acquisition section.

A management device causes a mobile work device to execute a pre-replacement process of detaching a pre-served feeder from a mounting attachment portion before a component shortage of a feeder and attaching a replacement feeder corresponding to a feeder predicted to be subjected to the component shortage to the mounting attachment portion from which the pre-served feeder is detached when the feeder attached to the mounting attachment portion is predicted to be subjected to the component shortage and the mounting attachment portion is in a predetermined serving state such that there is no vacancy in the mounting attachment portion and the pre-served feeder to be used in the next and subsequent productions is attached to a part of the mounting attachment portion.

A storage includes a first opening section, a second opening section, and a moving section. An article used in a board working machine configured to perform predetermined board work on a board is received or delivered through the first opening section. The second opening section is an opening section different from the first opening section, and when reception work or delivery work of the article is performed through the first opening section, an article different from the article can be received or delivered through the second opening section. The moving section moves the article to a predetermined storage section when the article is received through the first opening section or the second opening section and moves the article stored in the storage section to the first opening section or the second opening section when the article is delivered.

There is provided a pallet replacing device configured to be applied to a component supply device in which pallets, each holding components, are individually stored in multiple storage slots which are formed at predetermined heightward intervals inside a magazine, and the pallets are selectively drawn out to supply the components, the pallet replacing device, including a main body case, multiple replacing slots formed at the predetermined heightward intervals inside the main body case and configured to store the pallets therein, a positioning section configured to position the main body case in a predetermined position where the multiple pallets can individually move between the storage slots and the replacing slots, and a moving tool configured to be used for a batch moving operation for moving the multiple pallets altogether at one time between the storage slots and the replacing slots.

The data management system includes a first storage section storing registration data in which component specifying information for specifying a component is associated with shape data, a second storage section storing possession device data, a search section for searching the registration data from the first storage section by using partial information included in at least one of the shape data and the component specifying information as a search condition, and a determination section for performing a suitability determination process of determining whether the shape data included in the registration data in a search result by the search section is suitable for the mounting process using the configuration device, based on the possession device data.
