A bonding apparatus comprises a chip holding part that disposes a chip part onto a substrate that has been placed on a substrate stage. The bonding apparatus adjusts the inclination of a chip holding surface that releasably holds the chip part. The bonding apparatus comprises: an adjustment controller which stores inclination information pertaining to inclination respectively for locations on a stage main surface having the substrate placed thereon; and a conforming jig which has a conforming surface onto which the chip holding surface is pressed, and in which the inclination of the conforming surface can be changed such that the inclination of the chip holding surface corresponds to the inclination indicated by the inclination information.

Provided is a flip chip mounting apparatus for mounting chips (400) to a substrate (200), and the apparatus includes at least one sectionalized mounting stage (45) divided into a heating section (452) and a non-heating section (456), the heating section being for heating a substrate (200) fixed to a front surface of the heating section, the non-heating section not heating the substrate (200) suctioned to a front surface of the non-heating section. With this, it is possible to provide an electronic-component mounting apparatus that is simple and capable of efficiently mounting a large number of electronic components.

A method for manufacturing a display device includes preparing a display device including a display panel including a first alignment mark and a first circuit board including a second alignment mark and on one end of the display panel, disposing the display device on a stage including a base mark, setting the base mark as a reference mark in consideration of a relative position relation between the first alignment mark and the base mark by sensing the first alignment mark and the base mark, and determining a bending state of the display device by sensing the base mark and the second alignment mark and identifying a position relation between the base mark and the second alignment mark.

A semiconductor manufacturing apparatus includes a stage connected to a vacuum generator to suction a semiconductor wafer including a plurality of semiconductor chips; a suction control unit connected to a connecting portion of the stage and the vacuum generator to control the connection of the stage and the vacuum generator; a pickup unit picking up each of the plurality of semiconductor chips; and a control unit controlling movement and rotation of the pickup unit and controlling the suction control unit; wherein the pickup unit moves the semiconductor chip from the stage to a mounting position of a supporting substrate and adherers the semiconductor chip by the control unit.

While a substrate is placed on a substrate placement stage provided in a central substrate transfer unit, the substrate is transferred to a component loading operation unit, after operation for loading a component on the substrate has been performed by the component loading operation unit, the central substrate transfer unit is moved to the side of a first component crimping operation unit to thereby transfer the substrate that remains placed on the substrate placement stage to the first component crimping operation unit, and the component is crimped to the substrate by the first component crimping operation unit.

A die bonding apparatus includes: a driven body; and a table for driving the driven body. The table includes: a base; a linear motor having a first mover that moves the driven body, and a stator; a first linear motion guide that is provided between the base and the stator and capable of freely moving the stator; a second linear motion guide that is provided between the base and the first mover and capable of freely moving the first mover; a second mover provided in the form of being fixed to the base; and a control device for controlling the first mover and the second mover. The control device is configured to move the stator along the first linear motion guide using the second mover.

A bonding apparatus includes a stage on which a substrate is seated, a gantry installed above the stage, a bonding unit configured to bond a chip to the substrate while moving along the gantry, and a control part moving the bonding unit to align the bonding unit with a bonding position on the substrate, controlling the bonding unit to allow the bonding unit to bond the chip at the bonding position, determining a movement distance of the bonding unit based on a weighted sum of a number of continuous operations and an idle time of the bonding unit.

An automatic assembling system, comprising: a robot performing an operation of inserting a first member into a second member; a force sensor for detecting an insertion force exerted on the first member by the robot; and a controller for controlling the insertion force with a closed-loop feedback control according to a difference between the insertion force detected by the force sensor and a predetermined insertion force, so that the insertion force is less than the predetermined insertion force to protect the first member and/or the second member from damage due to an overlarge insertion force. The present invention also is directed to a method for automatically assembling a product.

There is provided a method of bonding substrates to each other, which includes: holding a first substrate on a lower surface of a first holding part; adjusting a temperature of a second substrate by a temperature adjusting part to become higher than a temperature of the first substrate; holding the second substrate on an upper surface of a second holding part; inspecting a state of the second substrate by imaging a plurality of reference points of the second substrate with a first imaging part, measuring positions of the reference points, and comparing a measurement result with a predetermined permissible range; and pressing a central portion of the first substrate with a pressing member, bringing the central portion of the first substrate into contact with a central portion of the second substrate, and sequentially bonding the first substrate and the second substrate.

To allow short time spreading for adhesive, verifying whether the adhesive is spread out to a member end. In obtaining a bonded member by applying the adhesive to a surface of one of two members and bonding the members with a member bonding device, a tilt adjusting device acquires with a camera an image of spreading state of the adhesive in the members' bonding surface, and adjusts the tilt of the bonded member when a non-spreading part of the adhesive between ends of the bonded member and the adhesive has a size bias so that the adhesive moves to the larger side of the part, and a spreading adjustment device controls a pushing amount and a pushing time interval of a pressing-side member to adjust spreading of the adhesive so that the part size reduces to a predetermined size depending on the part size acquired with the camera, and cures the adhesive in the bonded member edge with the non-spreading part eliminated.
