In a mounting system including a loading station having a transport conveyor for conveying printed circuit boards, a mounting machine for fabricating circuit devices by attaching electronic assemblies on printed circuit boards supplied thereto from said loading station, and a unloading station having a transport conveyor for conveying circuit devices supplied thereto from the mounting machine, the loading station includes a discriminating device for discriminating the kind or type of printed circuit boards and generating a discrimination signal for instructing the kind or type of the printed circuit board. A mounting process in the mounting machine in selectively set by the discrimination signal from the discriminating device. According to this mounting system, even when many kinds of circuit devices are fabricated by many kinds of printed circuit boards, mounting processes can be successively carried out by one mounting line.
A mounting method including the steps of supplying printed circuit boards of different kinds or types from a loading station to a mounting machine, attaching electronic assemblies on a printed circuit board by said mounting machine, and ejecting said printed circuit board supplied from said mounting machine to an unloading station, said method further comprising the steps of:
