Data updating method of circuit board work system and circuit board work system
View Patent ↗In an electronic component mounting system, when a change in a recipe (setting data) for a control computer are input in any one of a plurality of circuit board working machines, such as component mounting machines, the control computer reports changed content to a host computer. The host computer, which receives the report, updates the data, which is stored in the DB server, based on the changed content of the recipe. The control computer, which receives input of the change in the recipe, executes a process in which only the partial data, which is updated by the host computer, is acquired among the data items, which are stored in the DB server.
1. A data updating method of a circuit board work system, the method comprising:
creating setting data of an operation of the circuit board work system by a host computer, the host computer being connected to a plurality of control computers, each control computer being connected to a corresponding circuit board working machine, and the setting data including mounting coordinates of a production target and corresponding electronic components;
storing the setting data in a database server, which is controlled by the host computer;
transmitting the setting data from the host computer to one of the plurality of the control computers;
detecting a change or an error of one of the circuit board working machines;
reporting a change in the setting data relating to the detected change or the detected error of the one of the circuit board working machines to the host computer;
updating the setting data stored in the database server, by the host computer, based on the change in the setting data; and
acquiring partial data relating to the update among the setting data stored in the database server by the one of the plurality of the control computers.
2. The data updating method of the circuit board work system according to claim 1 , further comprising:
transmitting an instruction indicating that the partial data relating to the update is to be acquired from the database server to the one of the plurality of the control computers by the host computer; and
acquiring the partial data relating to the update according to the instruction by the one of the plurality of the control computers.
3. The data updating method of the circuit board work system according to claim 1 , wherein before the updating the setting data stored in the database server,
approving changed content of the setting data based on the detected change or the detected error of the one of the circuit board working machines.
4. The data updating method of the circuit board work system according to claim 1 , wherein content in which at least one data item in the setting data stored in the database sever relating to shapes and mounting positions of the electronic components which are mounted onto a circuit board by each of the circuit board working machines is changed according to results of mounting the electronic components onto the circuit board.
5. The data updating method of the circuit board work system according to claim 1 , further comprising:
updating the setting data stored in the database server based on input data of an external input device.
6. A circuit board work system, comprising:
a plurality of circuit board working machines each of which is provided with a control computer and which performs work on a circuit board;
a host computer which is shared by the plurality of circuit board working machines and which manages each of the plurality of the control computers;
a database server; and
circuitry configured to
create setting data of an operation of the circuit board work system by the host computer, the setting data including mounting coordinates of a production target and corresponding electronic components;
storing the setting data in the database server, which is controlled by the host computer;
transmit the setting data from the host computer to one of the plurality of the control computers;
detect a change or an error of one of the plurality of the circuit board working machines;
report a change in the setting data relating to the detected change or the detected error of the one of the plurality of the circuit board working machines to the host computer;
update the setting data stored in the database server based on the change in the setting data; and
acquire partial data relating to the update among the setting data stored in the database server by the one of the plurality of the control computers.
