  • Publication number: 20180192557
    Abstract: In a rotary head type component mounter, among a specified quantity of suction nozzles held by a rotary head, multiple suction nozzles are lowered simultaneously. When the rotary head is moved by a head moving mechanism to a nozzle exchange area and exchange of suction nozzles is performed, two station reference marks of the nozzle station are imaged by a mark imaging camera, image recognition is performed of the positions of the two station reference marks, and the position and angle of the nozzle station is calculated. Then, the position and angle of the rotary head is corrected to be aligned with the position and angle of the nozzle station, multiple of the suction nozzles held on the rotary head are lowered simultaneously by Z-axis driving mechanisms and simultaneously exchanged with multiple of the suction nozzles in the nozzle station.

    Abstract: A nozzle section is held by a nozzle holder to be vertically movable, and the nozzle section is biased downwards by springs. A height position reference section for which image recognition is possible is provided on an outer circumferential section of the nozzle section. Both a component held on the lower end of the nozzle section and the height position reference section are in the field of view of a camera that captures a side view image of an area around the lower end of the nozzle section. The side view image is processed, the height position reference section and a height position of the lower end of the component are recognized, a height difference from the height position reference section to the lower end of the component is measured, and it is determined whether the pickup orientation of the component is acceptable based on the height difference.
