  • Feed amount data setting system for tape feeder, tape feeder, mounter
    Patent number: 8157142
    Abstract: A mounter is operable to sequentially detect feed amounts of a motor at respective times when respective electronic components held by a tape reach a pickup position, while rotating a sprocket 52 of a tape feeder 50 360 degrees or more, and store the feed amounts in correspondence with respective pins 54 drivingly feeding the tape. This makes it possible to reliably duplicate a state when each electronic component reaches the pickup position, based on a feed amount itself of the motor at a time when each electronic component truly reaches a pickup position.
    Type: Grant

  • Tape feeder and mounting apparatus
    Patent number: 8091215
    Abstract: When a component (X) is fed to a pickup position (53) but no suction action is carried out due to a variety of reasons, a reverse feeding action is carried out to return the component (X), which has been fed to the pickup position (53), to a position upstream of the pickup position (53) in the tape feeding direction. The same component (X) is thus not wasted but is resupplied to the pickup position (53) in the following pickup action, whereby the amount of waste of components is reduced.
