Production apparatus

A production apparatus for producing a component assembly by sequentially performing predetermined processes on an object to be processed in which object a jig for holding a subsidiary component is set to a main component, the production apparatus comprising:

• a rotational table main body that has an upper disk and a lower end, as well as a peripheral side wall located between the upper disk and the lower end, the rotational table main body being intermittently rotatable about an axis;
• a plurality of processing areas arranged in a ring formation about the rotational table main body;
• a plurality of processing tables, each arranged in a respective one of the plurality of processing areas;
• a plurality of holding and transferring-units that are disposed on the side wall of the rotational table main body so as to be spaced from one another in a circumferential direction of the rotational table main body, and that are supported on the side wall of the rotational table main body so as to rotate integrally with the rotational table main body, wherein the holding and transferring units are each capable of holding the object or the component assembly and are each capable of transferring the object or the component assembly from the rotational table main body and respective holding and transferring unit onto one of the plurality of processing tables;
• a plurality of loading portions that are provided on the upper disk of the rotational table main body, the loading portions being positioned so as to each correspond to a respective one of the plurality of holding and transferring units, wherein the loading portions are each capable of having the jig loaded thereon;
• and
• a plurality of processing units disposed in order to perform the predetermined processes in the plurality of processing areas.
