Abstract
In a bonding method and apparatus, a position-detecting camera is moved to a point above reference marks, and the positional relationship between the reference marks and the optical axis of the position-detecting camera is measured by the position-detecting camera, a bonding tool is moved to a point above the reference marks in accordance with an amount of offset stored in memory beforehand, the positional relationships between the reference marks and the tool are measured by an offset-correcting camera, and an accurate amount of offset is determined by correcting the mount of offset stored in memory beforehand based upon such a measurement result.
Claims6
A bonding method for a bonding apparatus in which a position-detecting camera that detects a position of a part to be bonded and a tool that performs bonding are offset, the method comprising the steps of:
- moving the position-detecting camera to a point above a reference marking on a reference member,
- measuring the positional relationship between the reference marking and an optical axis of the position-detecting camera by the position-detecting camera,
- moving the tool to a point above the reference marking in accordance with an amount of offset stored in memory beforehand,
- measuring the positional relationship between the reference marking and the tool by an offset-correcting camera, and
- correcting the amount of offset stored in memory beforehand on the basis of the measurement results, thus determining a desired accurate amount of offset.
A bonding apparatus in which a position-detecting camera that detects a position of a part to be bonded and a tool that performs bonding are offset, the bonding apparatus comprising:
- a reference member on which a reference marking is disposed,
- an offset-correcting camera which detects the reference marking, and
- a calculation and control device which determines an accurate amount of offset by correcting an amount of offset stored in memory beforehand on the basis of measurement result that consists of:
- a measured value obtained when the position-detecting camera is moved to a point above the reference marking on the reference member and the positional relationship between the reference marking and the optical axis of the position-detecting camera is measured by said position-detecting camera, and
- a measured value obtained when the tool is moved to a point above the reference marking in accordance with the amount of offset stored in memory beforehand and the positional relationship between the reference marking and the tool is measured by the offset-correcting camera.
