Abstract:
1. A component mounting method for determining a mounting condition to be set for at least one apparatus among apparatuses for manufacturing boards on which components are mounted, and mounting the components onto the boards at the at least one apparatus for which the mounting condition has been set, said component mounting method comprising: determining, from among the apparatuses, a specific apparatus which satisfies a predetermined standard in performance associated with a manufacturing operation; obtaining a mounting condition associated with the manufacturing operation from the specific apparatus determined in said determining; and setting the mounting condition obtained in said obtaining for a first apparatus that is one of the apparatuses and that is not the specific apparatus, wherein, in said obtaining, the first apparatus obtains the mounting condition from the specific apparatus without receiving an instruction for obtaining the mounting condition from outside the first apparatus, wherein said component mounting method further comprises: wherein, in a case where the comparison in said comparing shows that the performance of the other apparatus is higher than the performance of the first apparatus, the first apparatus obtains the mounting condition associated with the manufacturing operation of the other apparatus, the other apparatus being the specific apparatus in said obtaining.
