Abstract

An order processing device acquires an order request of a mounting member that is attached to mounting device and that handles a component, and component related information including information related to a component of a specific shape to be handled by the mounting member or information of a component related member that relates to a member that stores the component. Next, the order processing device outputs design data of the mounting member designed based on the acquired component related information to a customer PC of a requester. Designing of the mounting member is performed on the side of the supplier of mounting device and the design data is delivered to the requester, and the mounting member is manufactured on the requester side based on the design data using technology possessed by the requester.

Claims (37)

1. An order processing device that handles information relating to a mounting related processing device that performs processing related to mounting of mounting components on a board, the ordering processing device comprising:

a processor including a ROM and RAM configured to:

acquire, either together or individually, via a network from an information processing device of a requester, an order request of a mounting member that is related to handling of a component with a specific shape and that is attached to the mounting related processing device, and component related information that includes at least one of information related to the component with the specific shape and information related to a component related member on which the component with the specific shape is stored or loaded, the mounting member being a gripping member configured to grip the component, the gripping member including a base section and a claw section that grips the component, the base section being fixed to a slider provided in a groove of a gripper holder section, the gripper holder section being fixed to a first surface of a fixing section of a mechanical chuck of the mounting related processing device, and a gripping member identification information plate being provided on a second surface of the fixing section; and

output to the information processing device of the requester, via the network, design data of the mounting member designed based on the acquired component related information, and mounting member management data that includes information of the mounting member managed by the information processing device of the requester;

a memory device;

a display;

an input device; and

a communication section,

wherein the mounting member management data includes interference prevention information, the interference prevention information including information of a space occupied by the gripping member when attached to the fixing section of the mechanical chuck, and

wherein the processor is further configured to

create the interference prevention information memorized by the memory device and delivered via the communication section by the processor based on a size of the gripping member, the interference prevention information including a physical range in which tips of the fixing section of the mechanical chuck exist,

link the interference prevention information to identification information of the gripping member based on the gripping member identification information plate and create the mounting tool management data including size information of the gripping member, and

create identification information plate image data memorized by the memory device and delivered via the communication section by the processor corresponding to the identification information of the gripping member and output the identification information plate image data to the information processing device of the requester.

2. The order processing device according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor is further configured to

acquire the order request of a pickup member appropriate for picking up the component with the specific shape that is attached to the mounting related processing device, and the component related information that includes information related to the pickup member, and

output the design data of the pickup member appropriate for picking up the component with the specific shape.

3. The order processing device according to claim 2 , wherein

the processor is further configured to acquire the component related information including shape information of the component with the specific shape, and shape information of a storage member in which the component with the specific shape is stored.

4. The order processing device according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor is further configured to, with respect to the mounting related processing device, output information for delivery of the device itself to the information processing device of the requester via the network, and, with respect to the mounting member to be attached to the mounting related processing device, output information for delivery of the design data to the information processing device of the requester via the network.

5. The order processing device according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor is further configured to

output information for delivery of a pre-existing mounting member to the information processing device of the requester via the network when the pre-existing mounting member is capable of handling of the component, and

output information for delivery of the design data of the mounting member with the specific shape designed based on the acquired component related information to the information processing device of the requester via the network when the component with the specific shape cannot be handled by the pre-existing mounting member.

6. The order processing device according to claim 1 , wherein

the processor is further configured to

receive member management information related to mounting members to be attached to the mounting related processing device, and perform processing related to the mounting processing using the member management information, and

output the member management information related to the mounting member of the design data to the information processing device of the requester.

7. An order processing method performed by a computer for handling information relating to a mounting related processing device that performs processing related to mounting of mounting components on a board, the ordering processing method comprising:

acquiring, either together or individually, via a network from an information processing device of a requester, an order request of a mounting member that is related to handling of a component with a specific shape and that is attached to the mounting related processing device, and component related information that includes at least one of information related to the component with the specific shape and information related to a component related member on which the component with the specific shape is stored or loaded, the mounting member being a gripping member configured to grip the component, the gripping member including a base section and a claw section that grips the component, the base section being fixed to a slider provided in a groove of a gripper holder section, the gripper holder section being fixed to a first surface of a fixing section of a mechanical chuck of the mounting related processing device, and a gripping member identification information plate being provided on a second surface of the fixing section; and

outputting to the information processing device of the requester, via the network, design data of the mounting member designed based on the acquired component related information, and mounting member management data that includes information of the mounting member managed by the information processing device of the requester,

wherein the mounting member management data includes interference prevention information, the interference prevention information including information of a space occupied by the gripping member when attached to the fixing section of the mechanical chuck, and

wherein the method further comprises

creating the interference prevention information based on a size of the gripping member, the interference prevention information including a physical range in which tips of the fixing section of the mechanical chuck exist;

linking the interference prevention information to identification information of the gripping member based on the gripping member identification information plate and creating the mounting tool management data including size information of the gripping member; and

creating identification information plate image data corresponding to the identification information of the gripping member and output the identification information plate image data to the information processing device of the requester.
