  • Publication number: 20230199970
    Abstract: A circuit forming method for forming a circuit with a curable resin and a conductive fluid, the method including a setting step of setting errors that occur during a circuit forming work to an automatic release error and a non-release error for each type of error, the automatic release error being to be automatically released, and the non-release error being not to be automatically released, a determination step of determining whether an error has occurred in work when the circuit is formed, and a re-execution step of automatically re-executing work determined that the error has occurred in the determination step, in a case where the error of the work is set to the automatic release error in the setting step.

  • Patent number: 11357150
    Abstract: An electronic component mounter where information indicating completion of component mounting is memorized each time a component is mounted on circuit board by suction nozzle. Then, in a case in which mounting work is interrupted by a stoppage of the electronic component mounter and then restarted, the mounting position of the electronic component is imaged by mark camera according to information memorized immediately before the mounting work was interrupted. Also, with the electronic component mounter, in a case in which mounting work is interrupted by a stoppage of the mounter and then restarted, the mark camera is moved along a path over which the suction nozzle moved until the position of the suction nozzle when mounting work was interrupted. Here, imaging of the circuit board is performed by the mark camera.

  • Patent number: 11157344
    Abstract: Multiple component mounters that configure multiple user-side component mounting lines and a support-side information server are connected so as to be able to communicate with each other via a network. The support-side information server includes an information registration section collecting and registering failure information generated in the multiple user-side production devices and updating and registering failure avoidance information as a failure avoidance method becomes apparent, and an information distribution section distributing the failure information and the failure avoidance information to the user-side production devices.

  • Patent number: 10509375
    Abstract: In a control device which outputs control instructions at a constant cycle to each of a plurality of networks for executing a predetermined process according to the control instructions, a time (a required time) from when the control instruction is output to each of the plurality of networks until the predetermined process is executed is acquired for each of the plurality of networks. Among the plurality of required times, a difference (a shift time) between a short required time (required time of mounting head) and a long required time (required time of moving device) is calculated. When the shift time has elapsed after outputting the control instruction to the network of the moving device, the control instruction is output to the network of the mounting head.

  • Patent number: 10249232
    Abstract: When multiple display panel drivers are set to a state in conformity to given specifications, setting data indicative of details of the setting is stored in a memory. One of the display panel drivers supplies a first signal indicating that the setting data is in a readout condition to the memory and other display panel drivers. In response to the first signal, the memory reads and provides the setting data on the first line. The one display panel driver fetches the setting data on the first line to perform the setting based on the setting data. The other display panel drivers fetch the setting data from the first line in response to the first signal to perform the setting based on the setting data.

  • Patent number: 10083643
    Abstract: A transmission image data signal including: a coded data block obtained by performing an error correction coding on a sequence of pixel data pieces in input image data; and a representative pixel data pieces group containing three pixel data pieces corresponding to red, green, and blue, respectively, in the sequence of the pixel data pieces is transmitted to a driver in a display panel. The driver converts the sequence of the pixel data pieces obtained by performing an error correction on the transmission image data signal to pixel driving voltages and applies these voltages to the display panel. If pixels for one horizontal scanning line have an identical color, the driver performs no error correction. Instead, the driver converts the representative pixel data pieces group to pixel driving voltages and applies these voltages to the display panel.
