Abstract

In a case where check unnecessary components (chip components a to c) that do not require checking of the mounted states of the other components before being mounted and check necessary components (die components X and Y) that require checking of the mounted states of the other components before being mounted are mounted on a board, the check unnecessary components are mounted first and the mounted state of each component is inspected. When mounting of the check unnecessary components is completed, the check necessary components are mounted after it is checked that the mounted states of the check unnecessary components are normal based on the inspection results.

Claims (26)

1. A component mounting apparatus comprising:

mounting device for mounting components on a board; and

inspection device configured to determine a mounted state of the component mounted on the board, wherein

the components include a plurality of check unnecessary components that do not require checking of a mounted state of mounted components before being mounted and a plurality of check necessary components that requires checking of a mounted state of the mounted components before being mounted,

each of the check unnecessary components are mounted prior to mounting the check necessary components,

the mounting device is configured to mount a first check necessary component of the plurality of check necessary components on the board after the inspection device determines that the mounted state of the mounted components are normal, and

wherein the mounting device is configured to mount a second check necessary component on the board after checking the mounted states of the mounted components included the first mounted check necessary component are normal based on the inspection result.

2. The component mounting apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:

imaging device configured to image the mounted components mounted on the board, wherein

the inspection device is configured to determine the mounted state of the mounted components based on an image captured by the imaging device, and.

3. The component mounting apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein the imaging device is configured to image the check unnecessary components after the check unnecessary components are mounted on the board in a case where the check unnecessary components are included in a same visual field range.

4. The component mounting apparatus according to claim 3 ,

wherein the inspection device is configured to skip inspection of some of the check unnecessary components among the check unnecessary components mounted on the board, and

the mounting device is configured to mount the check necessary components on the board if it is checked that the mounted states of remaining check unnecessary components except for the some check unnecessary components are normal.

5. A component mounting system comprising:

the component mounting apparatus according to claim 3 ; and

a management device that manages mounting order of the components in the component mounting apparatus,

wherein the management device includes

setting accepting device for accepting setting as to whether the component is the check unnecessary component or the check necessary component,

storage device for storing an accepted setting in association with each component,

mounting order setting device for setting the check unnecessary component first in the mounting order before mounting the check necessary component, and

output device for outputting the set mounting order to the component mounting apparatus.

6. The component mounting system according to claim 5 ,

wherein the storage device is configured to store importance of the components stored as the check necessary components, and

the mounting order setting device is configured to set the mounting order of the check necessary components in the mounting order so that a component with low importance is mounted first.
