Abstract:
1. A wire bonding method of a wire bonding apparatus comprising: a capillary configured to bond a wire inserted through the capillary to a bonding target; a first clamper configured to move in conjunction with the capillary; and a second clamper disposed in line with the first clamper along an extending direction of the wire inserted through the capillary, the method comprising: a wire cutting step of cutting the wire by bonding the wire using the capillary in a state in which the first clamper is closed and the second clamper is opened, and then moving the capillary and the first clamper upward while the first clamper remains closed and the second clamper remains opened; and a wire extending step of extending the wire from a tip end of the capillary by moving the capillary upward, and then moving the capillary and the first clamper upward in a state in which the first clamper is opened and the second clamper is closed.
