Abstract:
A method for handling arrayed components that feeds the arrayed components arrayed in two component array directions, comprising: moving each component supported on a supporting body in a state of being arrayed in two orthogonal directions to a pickup position in sequence with a movement of the supporting body in the two component array directions, and making the components subjected to pickup operation by a component handling tool, wherein each unit region set by dividing a component supporting region of the supporting body about an approximately central position of the supporting body into a plurality of regions is positioned at a pickup standby position by rotation of the supporting body about the approximately central position of the supporting body in a switching manner; andafter each unit region is positioned at the pickup standby position, positioning each component in the positioned unit region to the pickup position in sequence with a movement of the supporting body in the two component array directions, and subjected to pickup operation in sequence.
