Abstract:
A method of mounting an electronic component in which a plurality of parts cassettes respectively accommodating different types of electronic components are moved by a component feeding unit to a component feeding position in a mounting order for feeding electronic components, and a plurality of component suction nozzles are successively moved along a circular track from a component pick-up position above the component feeding position, where the component suction nozzle picks up the electronic component, to a posture recognizing position, where the posture of the electronic component held with the component suction nozzle is detected, and further to a component mounting position, where the picked-up electronic component is mounted on a circuit substrate, comprising:obtaining data on an amount of displacement of the component from a prescribed holding position of the component suction nozzle corresponding to each of the parts cassettes based on posture recognition results detected at the posture recognizing position; and adjusting the component feeding position of a subsequently-fed electronic component to more accurately correspond to the component pick-up position based on said data on the amount of displacement.
