Abstract: An electronic component mounting apparatus is configured to adjust a positional relationship between two axes when an error occurs in the positional relationship between the axes when a beam is moved by two drive sources. According to movement of the beam for component picking and mounting operations, linear scale signals from linear scale reading heads are inputted to a Y2 driver and a Y1 driver, respectively. Each of the Y2 driver and the Y1 driver calculates a difference between positions of the drive axes of the beam and controls a moving member of a linear motor based on the difference so as to increase thrust of one drive axis when the one drive axis is in a more backward position than another drive axis and to reduce the thrust of one drive axis when the one drive axis in a more forward position than another drive axis.

Abstract: The invention is directed to quick adjustment of a positional relationship between two axes when an error occurs in the positional relationship between the axes when a beam is moved by two drive sources. According to movement of the beam for component picking and mounting operations, linear scale signals (outputs relating to positions of one drive axis and another drive axes) from linear scale reading heads are inputted to a Y2 driver and a Y1 driver respectively.

Abstract: An electronic parts-mounting apparatus includes an index unit which has an output shaft and is connected to a reduction gear for being driven thereby. A rotatable table is connected to the index unit and driven thereby into intermittent rotation. At least one camshaft is connected to the output shaft of the index unit. At least one cam rigidly mounted on the at least one camshaft is in contact with at least one cam follower associated therewith. The output shaft of the index unit is caused to rotate at a uniform rotational speed in which one rotation thereof corresponds to a plurality of repetition periods of intermittent rotation of the rotatable table.
