Abstract:
1. A component mounting method comprising: using a first mounting unit in a first mounting region to perform first operations of concurrently with performing said first operations of (i)-(v), using a second mounting unit in a second mounting region to perform second operations of executing operational control of said first and second mounting units; while executing said operational control of said first and second mounting units, determining, when one of said first operations is performed, whether a speed of one of said second operations is decreasing or stopping and, if the speed of said one of said second operations is not decreasing or stopping, executing said operational control of said first and second mounting units such that the speed of said one of said second operations is caused to decrease; and while component recognition is performed by said second mounting unit in said second mounting region, executing said operational control of said first and second mounting units such that component placement or component holding is not performed by said first mounting unit in said first mounting region, wherein said first and second mounting regions are obtained by dividing a component mounting work region, with said first and second mounting regions being on opposite sides of a path through which mounting base objects are to be conveyed.
