Mounting device and bending determination method

Abstract

A mounting device, which picks up a component by a suction nozzle attached to a syringe and mounts the component on a board, includes a camera configured to capture an image of a target object from below, a head provided with the syringe to be able to be lifted or lowered and configured to move in a horizontal direction, a control section configured to control the head and the camera such that a jig nozzle is attached to the syringe at a predetermined determination timing and an image of the jig nozzle is captured from below in a state where the syringe is lowered at a predetermined position in the horizontal direction, and a determination section configured to process the captured image and determine bending of the syringe based on a position of the jig nozzle with respect to the predetermined position.
