  • Patent number: 9750169
    Abstract: A method for mounting an electronic component onto a circuit board. The method may include preparing a mounting device including a rotatable mounting head, a holding means to hold the electronic component, a component recognition camera, a memory device, and a microcomputer, the electronic component being mounted onto the circuit board based on a result of performing recognition processing with respect to an acquired image, determining a mid-operation instruction action mode at start of a production operation, executing an instruction of obtaining an offset value relative to a rotation center of the rotatable mounting head and storing the offset value in the memory device at a time interval according to the determined mid-operation instruction action mode, and executing the instruction at a longer time interval when the instruction has continuously met a required accuracy more than once.

  • Publication number: 20150013154
    Abstract: A mid-operation instruction action mode is set when an operation for producing a printed circuit board starts, an offset value with respect to the center of rotation of a mounting head is determined in an interval according to the set mid-operation instruction action mode, and an instruction for saving the offset value in a memory of a control microcomputer is made. If the requisite accuracy is delivered as a result of the instructions being performed a plurality of times in continuation, the control microcomputer performs a control so that the instructions are performed over a greater interval than the interval according to the mid-operation instruction action mode. If the requisite accuracy is not delivered even if the instructions are performed over an interval greater than the interval, the control microcomputer performs a control so that the instructions are performed over an interval according to the set mid-operation instruction action mode.

  • Patent number: 7533459
    Abstract: The invention is directed to increased stabilization of a pickup operation by reducing a reaction against disturbance by reducing a feedback value when a pickup rate is improved. A positional shifting amount of an electronic component on a suction nozzle before the electronic component is mounted on a printed board is stored in a RAM each time the component is picked up at a component feeding unit until a pickup count number reaches a predetermined pickup number, and a CPU calculates an average of the positional shifting amounts. When the pickup count number reaches the predetermined pickup number, the CPU obtains a temporary coefficient by adding an initial value to a value obtained by multiplying a negative coefficient by the pickup count number, and calculates a feedback value by multiplying the temporary coefficient by the average.
