  • Patent number: 11503752
    Abstract: Component mounting machine includes head, a device for moving head, transfer unit, and a mounting controller. Circular plate is an example of a container in which paste is placed. The bottom face of circular plate and the upper surface of the side wall have a predetermined height relationship. Height sensor is disposed on the lower face of head. Height sensor measures the height of the upper surface of the side wall of circular plate, which is a measurement point. The mounting controller recognizes the height of the bottom face of circular plate or the height of the surface of coating film disposed on circular plate from the height of the top surface of the side wall of circular plate measured by height sensor.
