Component supply management system and component supply management method

A component supply management method for managing a component supply state of a tape feeder that allows a carrier tape inserted from a tape insertion port to travel so as to supply a component held in the carrier tape to a component supply position, the method comprising:

• a threshold setting step of setting a threshold with respect to a remaining amount capable of being supplied by the carrier tape, for each of the tape feeders, depending on types of the tape feeders;
• a remaining amount detection step of detecting a remaining amount of components capable of being supplied by the carrier tape, for each of the tape feeders;
• a determination step of determining whether the remaining amount of components capable of being supplied, detected in the remaining-amount detection step, is lower than the threshold set in the threshold setting step, for each of the tape feeders;
• and
• a tape replenishment notification step of issuing a warning for recommending replenishment of the carrier tape with respect to the tape feeder in which it is determined in the determination step that the remaining amount of components capable of being supplied is lower than the threshold.
