Abstract
In the component position measurement method, the position B of the component 1 when the laser beam is blocked (the laser beam blocking position) is measured with respect to the chuck position A of the component 1. Since the component 1 generates a large vibration (inclination) during the chuck is used, the position of the leading end (front end) C of the component 1 is computed using the inclination angle θ with respect to the measurement value of the deviation amount H of the laser beam blocking position B of the component 1 based on a similarity relationship of a triangle.
Claims2
A component position measurement method, comprising:
- gripping a component using a chuck;
- registering a gripping position of the component that is gripped by the chuck as a measurement reference position;
- shifting the component that is gripped by the chuck with an inclination so as to block a light beam in a direction intersecting the component at a blocking position by the component;
- measuring a positional deviation of the component in a direction that is inclined with respect to the measurement reference position at the blocking position by a measurement unit;
- obtaining a deviation amount by comparing the measurement value with the registered measurement reference position;
- obtaining a measurement correction value of a leading end position of the component based on a similarity relationship between a virtual triangle obtained by setting the deviation amount as one side and the measurement reference position as one point and a virtual triangle passing through the blocking position, a leading end of the component, and a position dropping from the component leading end to a horizontal line passing through the blocking position;
- and
- obtaining a component leading end position deviation amount by summing the deviation amount and the measurement correction value.
