Abstract:
The present invention provides an electronic component mounting apparatus, wherein a high speed operation can be provided by simplifying the structure of a mounting head and wherein the working efficiency can be improved by eliminating the use of the mounting head for a coating process. In the electronic component mounting apparatus, a flux is coated on chips supplied to an electronic component feeding unit while bump formation faces are directed upward. The chips are mounted on a substrate. A holding head receives the chips extracted from an adhesive sheet by a mounting head and is inverted relative to a stage on which a flux is spread. As a result, the bumps of the chips are covered with the flux and are flattened, and after the holding head is returned to the original stage, the chips on the stage are extracted and mounted on the substrate by the mounting head.

Abstract:
An electronic component placement machine and an electronic component placement method are disclosed. A takeout and transfer head (16), provided on rotary chip takeout and transfer mechanism (15), removes a chip (6) from a feeder (2) and flips it. A placement head (14) receives the flipped chip (6) and places it onto a board (10). An image of the chip (6) at a pre-centering recognition position is captured during a takeout and transfer operation, during which the takeout and transfer head (16) transfers the chip (6) to the placement head (14) at a receiving position, so as to recognize the position. Based on this positional recognition result, the chip (6) and the placement head (14) are positioned by controlling a placement head driving mechanism. Moreover, the takeout and transfer head (16) is rotated to a position which does not hinder image capturing of the electronic component for placement positioning.
