Patent ID: 8849442

Claim:
A component mounting line comprising: a component mounting device which mounts components on a substrate; and an inspection device which performs appearance visual inspection for a substrate with components mounted by a component mounting device, wherein the component mounting device includes a data creation unit for, when substitute components which are another type of components having the same electrical characteristics and a different appearance are mounted in place of one type of components at the mounting positions on the substrate, creating substitute component related data including information specifying the substrate on which substitute components are mounted and the mounting positions at which the substitute components on the substrate are mounted and information indicating types of substitute components, and a data transmission unit for transmitting the substitute component related data created by the data creation unit to the inspection device, and the inspection device includes a data receiving unit for receiving the substitute component related data transmitted from the component mounting device, and a data change unit for specifying the substrate on which the substitute components are mounted and the mounting positions at which the substitute components on the substrate are mounted on the basis of the substitute components related data received from the data receiving unit, and changing data for inspecting the components at the mounting positions at which the substitute components are mounted to data corresponding to the types of the substitute components.
