Abstract
The component mounter includes a mounting control section that controls a mounting operation for a component by the mounting head based on a control program to execute a mounting process. In a recovery process of attempting to mount a component anew with a mounting position related to the mounting operation as a target position in a case where an error has occurred in the mounting operation, the mounting control section executes the mounting operation for the component by using a designated holder that is one of the multiple holders allocated to the target position in the mounting process as the designated holder.
Claims12
A component mounter comprising:
- a moving table configured to be moved in a horizontal direction;
- multiple holders to which holding members holding picked-up components are respectively attached;
- a mounting head, provided on the moving table, configured to support the multiple holders to be movable up and down;
- and
- a mounting control section configured to control a mounting operation for the components by the mounting head to execute a mounting process based on a control program indicating mounting positions and a mounting order of the components,
- wherein after the mounting operation for the components is finished, the mounting control section is configured to perform a recovery process when an error has occurred in the mounting operation, the recovery process including:
- setting a mounting position in which the mounting of a component has the error as a target position,
- setting a holder in which the mounting of the component has the error as a designated holder,
- selecting between an accuracy prioritized mode in which a mounting operation of a component for the recovery process is executed by using the designated holder and a production prioritized mode in which the holder used for the mounting operation of a component for the recovery process is selected from among the multiple holders to reduce a time required in the recovery process, and
- performing the mounting operation of the recovery process using the selected accuracy prioritized mode or the selected production prioritized mode to attempt to mount a component in the target position.
