Abstract

A method determines a mounting condition of a mounter mounting a component onto a board, which includes the steps of: obtaining an operational sate parameter; and determining, in the case where a value of the obtained operational state parameter is not within a predetermined range, a mounting condition so that the value of the operational state parameter falls within the predetermined range.

Claims (8)

1. A mounting condition determination method for determining a mounting condition of a mounter which mounts a component onto a board, said method comprising:

obtaining an operation state parameter indicating an operational state of the mounter, which varies depending on a variation including a variation in dimensional accuracy of a component making up the mounter; and

determining a mounting condition including a rest time during which a mounting head equipped in the mounter stops after having moved, by reducing the rest time when the obtained parameter is better than a predetermined range in which stable mounting can be performed, and by extending the rest time when the obtained parameter is worse than the predetermined range,

wherein when the rest time is reduced a throughput increases to a value more than a predetermined value, and when the rest time is extended the throughput decreases to a value less than the predetermined value.

2. A mounting condition determination method for determining a mounting condition of a mounter which mounts a component onto a board, said method comprising:

obtaining an operational state parameter indicating an operational state of the mounter, which varies depending on a variation including a variation in dimensional accuracy of a component making up the mounter; and

determining a mounting condition including a rest time during which a suction nozzle equipped in the mounter stops after having descended, by reducing the rest time when the obtained parameter is better than a predetermined range in which stable mounting can be performed, and by extending the rest time when the obtained parameter is worse than the predetermined range,

wherein when the rest time is reduced a throughput increases to a value more than a predetermined value, and when the rest time is extended the throughput decreases to a value less than the predetermined value.
