Abstract

In component mounting device, if a rotary head held by a head holder greatly deviates from a specified reference, a CPU executes a process for a holding error. The process for the holding error includes a process of holding a rotary head again by the head holder or the like, for example. If the rotary head greatly deviates from a specified reference and the component mounting process is executed as is, there is a fear that poor precision will occur during component mounting. Therefore, the CPU does not execute the component mounting process but executes the process for the holding error.

Claims (13)

1. A component mounting device comprising:

a head that includes a nozzle capable of picking up a component;

a head holding means configured to hold and release the head, the head holding means being movable along an X-direction and along a Y-direction; and

a control means configured to determine whether the head held by the head holding means deviates from a specified reference beyond an allowable range by determining if a first difference between an X-coordinate of a head center and a target X-coordinate is greater than a first threshold value and determining if a second difference between a Y-coordinate of the head center and a target Y-coordinate is greater than a second threshold value, and execute a process for a holding error rather than a component mounting process if the deviation exceeds the allowable ramie.

2. The component mounting device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the control means executes a process of controlling the head holding means so that the head holding means holds the head again, as the process for the holding error.

3. The component mounting device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the control means executes a process of externally notifying the fact that the holding error has occurred, as the process for the holding error.

4. The component mounting device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the specified reference is a specified position of the head holding means.

5. The component mounting device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the specified reference is a specified position of the head held by the head holding means when head position correction data is created.

6. The component mounting device according to claim 1 , further comprising a camera for capturing an image of the head for determining the X-coordinate and the Y-coordinate of the head center.
