Abstract:
A system for mounting a plurality of circuit components on a circuit substrate, comprising:a substrate moving device which moves the circuit substrate to a predetermined position in a predetermined direction;a substrate supporting device which supports the circuit substrate moved to the predetermined position by the substrate moving device;a component mounting device which is provided above the supporting device and mounts each of the circuit components on the circuit substrate supported by the substrate supporting device;a temporary-fixing-material applying device which is provided on an upstream side of the component mounting device in the predetermined direction and which applies, to a plurality of component-mount places on a surface of the circuit substrate, a temporary fixing material which temporarily and stably fixes said each circuit component mounted by the component mounting device prior to a final fixing, to a corresponding one of the component-mount places on the surface of the circuit substrate;an inspecting device which is provided in a vicinity of the component mounting device and inspects whether said each circuit component has been appropriately temporarily fixed to the circuit substrate by the temporary fixing material; anda first control device which is connected to the component mounting device and the inspecting device and which controls the component mounting device to temporarily mount said each of the circuit components on the circuit substrate and controls the inspecting device to inspect, each time the component mounting device attempts to perform a circuit component mounting operation, whether said each circuit component has been appropriately temporarily fixed to the circuit substrate by the temporary fixing material applied by the temporary-fixing-material applying device.
