Abstract
A position detection sensor is provided on an index table, and a load track drive unit is provided on a load track. A control unit controls the load track drive unit to radially move the load track to adjust a radial position of the pocket with respect to the load track, based on a signal from the position detection sensor. The object is to smoothly fill electronic components stored in a load track into pockets in an index table.
Claims8
An electronic component transfer system comprising:
- a discoid index table having a plurality of circumferentially arranged pockets each for storing an electronic component, the index table being intermittently rotated step by step by an arrangement pitch of the pockets;
- a load track provided on the index table, and having storage sections corresponding to the pockets and storing the electronic components;
- a position detection sensor provided on the index table to detect a radial position of the pocket at a detection position;
- a load track drive unit that radially moves the load track;
- and
- a control unit;
- wherein the control unit drives the load track drive unit to radially move the load track per step of the index table to adjust the radial position of the pocket with respect to the load track, based on a signal from the position detection sensor.
