Abstract: The attachment possible period during which the attachment operation of the component supply reel can be performed is predicted for each of the tape feeders equipped in the component mounting apparatus, and the attachment time indicating a timing of the attachment operation is set to overlap the attachment possible periods of the candidate feeders, out of the tape feeders. Therefore, a frequency of the component replenishment operation of the operator can be suppressed. Further, the execution mode of the attachment operation for the candidate feeder corresponding to the attachment time is determined based on the number of the components planned to be supplied in accordance with the production planning by the candidate feeder. Therefore, a number of the components suitable for the production planning of the components-mounted boards can be replenished.

Abstract: A snap adapter for a wire stripping tool has a hollow body with a tool end, a component end, and a button. The tool end is sized for insertion into the tool body and the component end is sized for receiving a component meant to strip a cable of a specified diameter. The button comprises a pin feature for attaching the received component. Inserting the component into the snap adapter forces the pin away from the snap adapter hollow body to allow for full insertion of the component into the tool body. A spring disposed between the hollow body and button pushes the pin feature upwards through the hollow body to hold the component inside the snap adapter once the component is fully inserted. Removing the component requires pushing down the button to extract the pin feature, which allows the component to be slideably removed from the tool body.
