Abstract:
1. An electric component mounting apparatus in which a nozzle provided at a head portion picks up a component from a feeder to move the nozzle to a corresponding position on a substrate to thereby mount the component thus picked up on the substrate, comprising: an input unit which accepts input of user level information relating to a degree of skill of a worker as to safety measures for operating the apparatus, in advance of starting an operation of the electronic component mounting apparatus; and a control unit which performs an on-off control of a power supply of a mechanical portion operating the head portion in accordance with the user level information and a state of the apparatus including at least one of an open state of a safety cover for cover covering a movable range of the head portion, a downward movement of a feeder bank and a detection of a feeder foreign matter, wherein at a time of operating the head portion by a servo positioning mechanism in a state that the safety cover is opened, at least one of setting parameters used for servo control of the servo positioning mechanism is set in accordance with the user level information, and wherein the setting parameters include a setting parameter of a threshold value for monitoring accumulation of residual pulses, a setting parameter of a moving speed, a setting parameter for determining an error with respect to a target value of one of a position, a speed and a torque, and a setting parameter of a torque limit value.
