Abstract: A mounting device comprises a substrate stage, a mounting head, an elevating unit, a recognition mechanism, and a control unit. The recognition mechanism acquires position information about a chip recognition mark and a substrate recognition mark using an imaging unit. The control unit calculates an amount of positional deviation between a chip component and a substrate from the position information about the chip recognition mark and the substrate recognition mark, and performs alignment by driving the mounting head and/or the substrate stage according to the amount of the positional deviation. The chip component and the substrate are brought closer with each other and the alignment is performed in a state in which the imaging unit simultaneously images the chip recognition mark and the substrate recognition mark within a depth of field, after which the chip component and the substrate are brought into close contact with each other.

Abstract: A mounting device comprises an attachment tool configured to hold a surface of a chip component opposite to a surface having a chip recognition mark, a substrate stage configured to holds a substrate, a reflection light source configured to irradiate light containing wavelengths that pass through the chip component from the attachment tool side toward the substrate, and a recognition unit configured to recognize reflected light of the light irradiated by the reflection light source, the recognition unit being configured to acquire an image formed by light that passes through the chip component and is reflected by the substrate, to acquire position information of the substrate recognition mark.

Abstract: A positioning device is provided for determining a relative position between a substrate and a processing unit that is configured to perform an attachment process, when performing the attachment process at a prescribed position of the substrate. The positioning device comprises a substrate table configured to hold the substrate, a processing position movement mechanism including a driving unit configured to move the substrate table and the processing unit relative to each other, and a braking unit configured to restrict movement, caused by the driving unit, of at least one of the substrate table and the processing unit, and a control unit connected to the driving unit and the braking unit. The control unit is configured to restrict, by using the braking unit, the movement of the at least one of the substrate table and the processing unit during the attachment process.

Abstract: A mounting device mounts a chip component having a chip recognition mark and a substrate having a substrate recognition mark. An attachment tool has transparency and has a tool recognition mark. The attachment tool holds a surface of the chip component opposite to a surface having the chip recognition mark. A chip position recognition unit simultaneously acquires position information of the chip recognition mark and of the tool recognition mark. The substrate position recognition unit acquires position information of the substrate recognition mark and of the tool recognition mark. A control unit moves a substrate stage holding the substrate or the attachment tool in the in-plane direction of the substrate on the basis of information obtained by the chip position recognition unit and by the substrate position recognition unit to perform alignment between the chip component and the substrate.

Abstract: A mounting method includes the steps of, after positioning objects being bonded relative to each other, moving a movable wall positioned there around until coming into contact with one object holding means to form a local chamber having a local enclosed space, enclosing both objects in the chamber, reducing the pressure in the chamber, moving the object holding means in a direction for reducing the volume of the chamber and moving the movable wall following the movement of the object holding means, and bonding both objects to each other by pressing. Since the bonding part and the vicinity of the bonding part can be locally and efficiently enclosed from the surroundings, and the local chamber can vary the shape of the enclosed space with the bonding operation while maintaining the enclosed state even at the time of bonding.
