Abstract
A work machine including a conveyor belt is rotated such that a protruding section is positioned on the upstream side of an end face on the opposite side to a conveyance direction of a circuit board while the circuit board is clamped by a clamping device. Thereby, it is possible to prevent interference between the projecting portion and the circuit board, and reliably push out the circuit board toward the downstream side using the protruding section. In multiple work machines, the circuit boards are simultaneously conveyed after a clamp of the circuit board is released. Thereby, there is no need for the work machine on the upstream side to be on standby for conveyance of the circuit board using the work machine on the downstream side and it is possible to prevent a reduction of throughput.
Claims4
A board work machine comprising:
- a conveyance device having a conveyor belt on which a circuit board is placed and a clamping device that clamps the circuit board in a state in which the circuit board has been moved on the conveyor belt;
- and
- a control device that controls operation of the conveyance device,
- wherein a protruding section is formed on a placement face of the conveyor belt, and
- the control device includes a rotation control section that rotates the conveyor belt such that an end face of the protruding section on a revolving direction side of the protruding section matches, in an up-down direction, an upstream side of an end face on an opposite side to a conveyance direction of the circuit board while the circuit board is clamped by the clamping device.
