An apparatus including a carrier substrate configured to move a microelectronic device. The apparatus further includes a rotatable body configured to receive the microelectronic device. Additionally, the apparatus includes a second substrate configured to receive the microelectronic device from the rotatable body.

A support pin arrangement determination assisting apparatus including a display unit which displays an image including a board image, the board image indicating a shape and an arrangement of a component on the board, a position input unit through which an arrangement position of the support pin is input, a display processing unit which causes the display unit to display a figure to be superimposed on the board image, the figure corresponding to the support pin of which the arrangement position is input, a storage unit which stores three-dimensional shape data of an electronic component and three-dimensional shape data of the support pin, an interference judging unit which judges whether or not one or some of the support pins of which arrangement positions input interfere an already mounted component, and an alarm unit which announces occurrence of interference if the interference judging unit judges the occurrence of interference.

A component mounting device mounts an electronic component on a printed circuit board, and includes a sideview camera which takes an image of a side surface of a target, a mounting head having a nozzle shaft, and a driving device which moves the mounting head to a planar direction on a base. The nozzle shaft includes a shaft main body movably supported to a vertical direction with respect to the mounting head, and a suction nozzle attached at a tip of the shaft main body to suction and hold the electronic component, and an identification mark which identifies the suction nozzle is provided on a side surface of the suction nozzle.

A system for transferring a micro LED includes a micro LED dropped into a solution. The system further includes a micro LED grip body immersed in the solution, the micro LED grip body including a porous member having pores, and gripping the micro LED with a grip surface where the pores are provided. An upper surface of the porous member is configured with a seating recess having a guide inclined portion on which the micro LED is mounted and a shielding portion provided around the seating recess.

A filter removal method for removing a filter held in a filter holding space provided in a tip part of a nozzle shaft in a component suction head, in which a suction nozzle is detachably attached to the tip part of the nozzle shaft, from the component suction head. The method comprises a deforming step of compressing and deforming the filter in the filter holding space, and a discharging step of discharging the compressed and deformed filter from the filter holding space.

An apparatus for installing and removing glass panels and methods of using the apparatus are disclosed. The apparatus includes a base portion, a back support structure secured to the base portion, and a glass adjustment system moveably coupled to the back support structure. Methods for using the apparatus to install and remove glass panels from, for example, ice rink boards, are also disclosed.

A support pin arrangement determination assisting apparatus including a display unit which displays an image including a board image, the board image indicating a shape and an arrangement of a component on the board, a position input unit through which an arrangement position of the support pin is input, a display processing unit which causes the display unit to display a figure to be superimposed on the board image, the figure corresponding to the support pin of which the arrangement position is input, a storage unit which stores three-dimensional shape data of an electronic component and three-dimensional shape data of the support pin, an interference judging unit which judges whether or not one or some of the support pins of which arrangement positions input interfere an already mounted component, and an alarm unit which announces occurrence of interference if the interference judging unit judges the occurrence of interference.

A component mounting machine includes multiple component supplying devices, a head, a head moving device, and a nozzle lifting and lowering device. The component supplying device feeds out a component to a component supply position. The head includes multiple nozzles configured to suction a component. The head moving device moves the head to cause the nozzles to face the respective component supply positions with two or more thereof. The nozzle lifting and lowering device lifts and lowers the nozzle located to face the component supply positions. In positioning the nozzles to face the respective component supply positions, the head is moved so as to prioritize a positional correction of a nozzle facing a smallest sized component over positional corrections of the other nozzles, and in this state, the nozzles facing the respective component supply positions are lifted and lowered simultaneously to suction corresponding components.

A support pin arrangement determination assisting apparatus including a display unit which displays an image including a board image, the board image indicating a shape and an arrangement of a component on the board, a position input unit through which an arrangement position of the support pin is input, a display processing unit which causes the display unit to display a figure to be superimposed on the board image, the figure corresponding to the support pin of which the arrangement position is input, a storage unit which stores three-dimensional shape data of an electronic component and three-dimensional shape data of the support pin, an interference judging unit which judges whether or not one or some of the support pins of which arrangement positions input interfere an already mounted component, and an alarm unit which announces occurrence of interference if the interference judging unit judges the occurrence of interference.

The present disclosure relates to systems, apparatuses, and methods for assembling cartridges for aerosol delivery devices. The cartridges may be assembled by coupling a base of the cartridge to a carriage that is transported via a track. The track transports the carriages between various substations at which one or more parts are added to the base. The carriage may be lifted from the track by a lifter mechanism at each substation in order to perform assembly operations on the base. An inspection system may inspect the cartridges at various stages of completion at or between the various substations.
