A movement error detection apparatus includes a plurality of marks including a fifth mark (movable region inside mark) arranged in a movable region of a movable conveyor and first to fourth marks (movable region outside marks) arranged outside the movable region of the movable conveyor; a substrate recognition camera (imaging device to move together with a mounting head to image the first to fifth marks; and a projection device (auxiliary device) to assist an imaging. The first to fourth marks are arranged on a horizontal reference plane including a substrate, and the fifth mark is arranged at a position which is lower than the horizontal reference plane and at which the movable conveyor is not interfered. The projection device absorbs a height difference between the fifth mark and the horizontal reference plane to assist the substrate recognition camera in picking up a focused image of the fifth mark.

A component mounting apparatus includes a nozzle that sucks a component supplied from a feeder, conveys the component to a predetermined position on a substrate, and mounts the component in the predetermined position. The component mounting apparatus controls an XY-robot to perform repeatedly the component mounting operation while performing a thermal correction from a start of the component mounting operation as a result of a power supply being turned on until an amount of positional deviation due to heat from the XY-robot reaches a steady state. After the steady state is achieved, the component mounting apparatus controls the XY-robot to perform repeatedly the component mounting operation while performing a steady state correction using a correction amount resulting immediately after the steady state is achieved without performing the thermal correction and controls the XY-robot to perform a dummy operation for maintaining the steady state during a standby period.

A mounting accuracy measurement chip includes a chip main body; and one or more protrusions provided on a mounting face of the chip main body, which serve as a contact surface with a mounting target at a position shifted from the mounting face of the chip main body. The one or more protrusions are disposed only within a range defined by a circle whose center is center of gravity of the mounting face and whose radius is half the length of the longest distance from center of gravity to the outer edge of chip main body. Further, a mounting accuracy measurement kit includes the above-mentioned mounting accuracy measurement chip and placement portion, having a degree of adhesiveness, to which the contact surface of mounting accuracy measurement chip, which can be placed, adheres.

An electronic component mounting device including a component holding device to hold and mount on a board an electronic component supplied by a component supply device; a motor to drive the component holding device; a motor control device to control the motor; a load measurement device to measure a load applied from the component holding device upon being pressed by the component holding device while the component holding device performs the same operation as when mounting an electronic component on a board, by replacing the board with the load measurement device; a motor information acquisition section to obtain motor information corresponding to the force with which the motor drives the component holding device in the pressing direction against the load measurement device while the motor control device performs the same operation as when mounting an electronic component on the board, by replacing the board with the load measurement device.

If the moving direction of a suction nozzle during raising and lowering deviates from a vertical direction, appropriate work cannot be guaranteed because the holding position of a component by the suction nozzle will vary depending on the holding height of the component by the suction nozzle. Thus, a component loaded at a specified height (H) position from the upper surface of a stage is held by a suction nozzle, and that component is loaded at a specified position. Then, the component is imaged and the loading position (first height component loading position) of the component is calculated. Further, the component loaded on the stage is held by the suction nozzle and the component is loaded at the above specified position. Then, the component is imaged and the component loading position (second height component loading position) is calculated. Next, the deviation amount between the first height component loading position and the second height component loading position is calculated. Thus, appropriate mounting can be guaranteed by performing correction of the component holding position, correction of the component loading position, or the like, based on the deviation amount.

A system for transferring a substrate may adjust a suction force to a suitable level. The system may include a work table, a picker, and a pressure measuring unit. The work table may include a work area for supporting the substrate. The picker may be disposed above the work table and may include a suction unit for providing the suction force. The pressure measuring unit may overlap the suction unit and may include a pressure-sensitive element for facilitating adjustment of the suction force.

A component mounting positional deviation amount measurement unit is set in a feeder setting section of a component mounting machine so as to be exchangeable with a cassette-type feeder, and includes measurement nozzle placement sections in which measurement nozzles exchangeably held in a mounting head of the component mounting machine are placed; measurement component placement sections in which measurement components are placed; and a measurement mounting table on which a measurement fiducial mark is provided. When a component mounting positional deviation amount of the component mounting machine is measured, the measurement component is sucked by the measurement nozzle by holding the measurement nozzle in the mounting head, the measurement component is mounted on the measurement mounting table, and a deviation amount of a mounting position of the measurement component with respect to the measurement fiducial mark is measured as a component mounting positional deviation amount of the component mounting machine.

To provide a control device and a control method of a component mounting machine which is capable of improving the accuracy of mounting control. In a case where the holding member is moved from a current position to a predetermined processing position within the component mounting machine, the control device of the component mounting machine moves a holding member to a preparation position which is set to a defined propelling direction and distance with respect to the processing position, and then moves the holding member from the preparation position to a mounting position.

Movable section of a cut and clinch unit includes exchange section in which is formed second insertion hole for cutting and bending a lead, and main body section to which exchange section is removably attached. An opening position of the second insertion hole is calculated as an attachment position of the exchange section on the main body section based on image data. It is determined whether a difference between the calculated opening position and a standard position of the second insertion hole that is set in advance exceeds a threshold value. If the difference between the calculated opening position and the standard position exceeds the threshold value, calibration is performed based on the assumption that the exchange section has been exchanged.

A board work system including ark arrangement members, on which are arranged multiple marks that have a specified relative positional relationship, are arranged straddling first work area in which first work head moves and second work area in which second work head moves, and, when performing work with respect to a board, which is a single board held by a board holding device in a state straddling the first work area and the second work area, based on positions of the marks in first work area measured based on image data of first imaging device that is moved along with the first work head and positions of the marks in second work area measured based on image data of second imaging device that is moved along with the second work head.
