Wireless communication device manufacturing system

A wireless communication device manufacturing system for fixing an RFIC module that includes an RFIC chip to an antenna base material including an antenna pattern, the system comprising:

• a conveyor configured to convey the antenna base material to pass through a mounting position;
• a suction table configured to suction and support the antenna base material at the mounting position;
• a mounter configured to mount, at the mounting position, the RFIC module on the antenna base material with an adhesive layer interposed therebetween;
• a nip roller configured to nip the antenna base material having the RFIC module mounted thereon, in a thickness direction of the antenna base material, and to press the RFIC module against the adhesive layer, the roller pair including two rollers that are configured to separate from each other and to release the antenna base material while the antenna base material is being suctioned by the suction table;
• and
• at least one dancer roller freely movably in a height direction and disposed on the antenna base material on at least one of an upstream side and a downstream side of the mounter in a conveying direction of the antenna base material and configured to be kept in contact with the antenna base material by its own weight,
• wherein the at least one dancer roller includes a cylindrical portion configured to receive the antenna base material and locking portions provided at respective ends of the cylindrical portion.
