Abstract:
1. An electronic component mounting apparatus, comprising: a plurality of component feeding units feeding electronic components and aligned on a base; a mounting head provided with suction nozzles, the mounting head being movable between the component feeding units and a printed board positioning portion, and the suction nozzles picking the electronic components up from the component feeding units; a recognition camera taking images of component feeding positions of the component feeding units; a command device commanding the recognition camera to sequentially take images of the component feeding positions of the component feeding units so that the taken images are stored prior to a start of a mounting operation; a display device displaying each of the images taken by the recognition camera with a graphic image of a component pick-up position; a position matching device for matching the component feeding positions with the corresponding component pick-up positions by moving the image taken or the graphic image on the display device for visual alignment; a storage portion storing shift amounts detected by the position matching device; and a control device controlling alignments of the component pick-up positions with respect to the suction nozzles based on the shift amounts stored in the storage portion, wherein the command device is configured to have the display device show the stored images successively in response to an action by a user prior to the start of the mounting operation.
