Component mounting apparatus, service providing device and servicing method

A service providing method for providing a service for monitoring a mounting tact of a component mounting apparatus, from a service provider provided for a supplier or a service person side of the component mounting apparatus, including a component supplier for supplying a component and a component holder for holding the component from the component supplier and mounting the component onto a circuit board, to a service receiver provided on a user side for mount production using the component mounting apparatus via a communication system including the Internet, the method comprising:

• collecting and monitoring a mounting tact result value of the component mounting apparatus during mounting operation by the service provider via the service receiver;
• calculating a tact loss corresponding to an amount that the mounting tact result value is greater than a standard mounting tact;
• and
• analyzing a cause of a decrease in the mounting tact result value.

A service providing method for providing a service for monitoring a mounting tact of a component mounting apparatus or a component mounting line, from a service provider provided for a supplier or a service person side of the component mounting apparatus, comprising a component supplier for supplying a component and a component holder for holding the component from the component supplier and mounting the component onto a circuit board, or the component mounting line in which a connection is made so as to include the component mounting apparatus, to a service receiver provided to a user side for mount production using the component mounting apparatus or the component mounting line via a communication system including the Internet, the method comprising:

• collecting mounting tact information including a mounting tact result value of the component mounting apparatus from the service receiver by the use of the service provider via the communication system;
• judging whether a mounting operation of the component mounting apparatus has a tact loss corresponding to an amount by which a mounting tact is greater than a standard mounting tact as a result of analysis of the collected mounting tact information;
• and
• determining and feeding back NC data for allowing the component mounting apparatus to be operated, in which an arrangement of the component supplier or a component mounting order is adjusted to reduce the tact loss, to the service receiver via the communication system, when it is judged that the mounting operation has a tact loss.

A service providing device provided for a supplier or a service person side of a component mounting apparatus comprising a component supplier for supplying a component and a component holder for holding the component from the component supplying device and mounting the component onto a circuit board, or a component mounting line in which connection is made so as to include the component mounting apparatus, the service providing device providing a service for monitoring a mounting tact of the component mounting apparatus or the component mounting line to a service receiver provided at a user side for mount production using the component mounting apparatus or the component mounting line via a communication system including the Internet, wherein the service providing device comprises:

• a collector that collects mounting tact information including a mounting tact result value of the component mounting apparatus from the service receiver via the communication system;
• a judger that judges whether a mounting operation of the component mounting apparatus has a tact loss corresponding to an amount by which a mounting tact is greater than a standard mounting tact as a result of analysis of the collected mounting tact information;
• and
• a determiner that determines and feeds back NC data for allowing the component mounting apparatus to be operated, in which an arrangement of the component supplier or a component mounting order is adjusted to reduce the tact loss, to the service receiving device via the communication system, when it is judged that the mounting operation has a tact loss.
