FIG. 2 shows a state in which the feeder 20 and the supply reel 70 for supplying electronic components to the feeder 20 are placed at the positions of feeder installation numbers 3 and 20.

  Hereinafter, the process flow of the setup in the mounting line 100 of the present embodiment described above will be described.

FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an embodiment of the entire setup process flow performed by the control device 18. 4 and 5 show an example of a monitor screen displayed on the display device 18 of the apparatus 1 in the setup shown in FIG.
First, the monitor screen 30 shown in FIG. 4 is displayed at the start of production by the mounting line or at the end of the work of the previous production model. The monitor screen 30 includes an operation mode column 31 indicating an operation mode, a processing content display column 32 for the selected operation mode, and an instruction information result column 33 for displaying instructions or information or results. In FIG. 4, “setup change” 31 a in the operation mode column 31 is touched to select the setup change mode. As a result, the processing content necessary for the setup change is displayed in the processing content display field 32 of FIG. 4 (Step 1).

  Next, when “model switching” 32 a in the processing content display column 32 is touched on the screen of FIG. 4, a list 33 a of production models to be mounted is displayed in the instruction information result column 33. Here, the production model generally indicates the type of board on which electronic components are mounted. When a model is selected, mounting, that is, production is performed with processing contents attached to the board. In FIG. 4, the previous production model is “Program 1” indicated by a broken line. Then, “Program 2” 33b of the production model 2 indicated by the bold line next to “Program 1” is selected by touching, and thereafter, the “model confirmation” 33c is touched to confirm the production model (Step 2).

  Next, when the production model is confirmed, a comparison between the previous production model data already stored in each device and the current production model data is performed for each item of conveyor width change, nozzle replacement, backup pin replacement, and feeder replacement. And determine whether it is necessary to set up each item (Step 3). FIG. 5 shows a monitor screen 30 showing the determination result in the instruction information result column 33. According to the determination result shown in FIG. 5, it is not necessary to set up only the backup pin replacement. For example, in nozzle replacement, all the nozzles necessary for this model production are present in the production model data of the previous model production, or nozzles that are not present in the production model data of the previous model production are nozzle stockers ( If it exists, it is judged unnecessary.

  Thereafter, “conveyor change” and “nozzle replacement” determined to be necessary for setup in Step 3 among the setup items shown in the processing content display column 32 are sequentially selected, and the respective items are set up (Step 4). In this case, in FIG. 5, by touching “detail” in the instruction information result column 33, the detailed content is displayed, and the worker performs work based on the content or is automatically performed by the control device 19. For example, when “Details” 33 d is touched for a nozzle, the missing nozzle type and the number of nozzle types are displayed. The worker supplements the shortage of nozzles in a nozzle stocker (not shown) according to the displayed content.

  Next, among the setup items shown in the processing content display column 32, “Feeder exchange” is selected by touching, the feeder exchange which is the most characteristic feature of the present embodiment is carried out (Step 5), and the setup work is terminated.

  Hereinafter, the setup for feeder replacement will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 6 shows an example of the processing flow of feeder replacement setup in this embodiment. FIGS. 7 and 8 show examples of line feeder setup data associated with collation data necessary for feeder replacement in the mounting line 100 and the feeder installation position. The line feeder setup data includes feeder part related data in FIG. 7 and line part installation position related data in FIG. For example, the line component installation position related data is an apparatus feeder which is individual setup data of a plurality of electronic component mounting apparatuses indicating the relationship between the feeder installation position and the component ID for each apparatus as shown in FIG. Has setup data.

FIG. 7 is a table showing feeder component related data indicating the relationship between a series of feeder serial numbers to which all the feeders 20 are attached and the component IDs of electronic components supplied from the feeder 20, and is registered in the server PC. The component ID shown in FIG. 7 is represented by alphanumeric characters indicating the component type, dimensions, manufacturer, and the like. FIG. 8 is a component installation position showing the relationship between the feeder installation position (indicated by numerals 1, 3, 20 in FIG. 2) of the feeder installation unit 53 shown in FIG. 2 and the component ID of the electronic component supplied at that position. It is a table | surface which shows related data. The part installation position related data is one of the production model data prepared in advance for each production model. FIG. 8A shows part installation position related data of the production model “Program 2”, and FIG. 8B shows part installation position related data of the production model “Program 3”. 9 to 11 show the monitor screen 30 in the main step among the steps in FIG.
7 and 8, only one component ID is shown. However, when there is an equivalent product from another manufacturer, the component ID is also listed and used as a target for collation.

Hereinafter, the processing flow of feeder replacement setup will be described mainly with reference to FIG.
First, when “exchange feeder” is selected in step 5 of FIG. 3, the monitor screen 30 of the display device 18 at the time of feeder verification shown in FIG. 9 is displayed. In the processing content display field 32, “Feeder verification” is automatically displayed in red. In accordance with the instruction in the instruction information result field 33e of the instruction information result field 33, the worker takes one feeder 20 wound around the reel 70 and connected to the supply tape 60 containing the electronic components. 2 is temporarily placed on the reel storage unit 52 or a desk, the feeder 20 is held with one hand, the barcode reader 56 is held with the other hand, and the feeder serial number affixed to the feeder as shown in FIG. The barcode 58 shown is read by the barcode reader 56. As a result, the feeder serial number “TF10000-2091” that has been read is displayed in the feeder serial number display field 33f of the monitor screen 30 shown in FIG. 9 (Step S1).

  Next, the control device 19 performs a “feeder verification” process based on the read feeder serial number “TF10000-2091” (Step S2). The “feeder verification” process has two processes. In the first process, the corresponding part ID is searched by the feeder serial number “TF10000-2091” (Step S2a). For this purpose, the read feeder serial number is sent to the server PC via the communication line CL. Then, the server PC determines that the component ID is “C1608-T05BO” from the feeder component related data shown in FIG. 7, and sends the result to the apparatus 1. Unlike the above-described embodiment, the feeder component related data shown in FIG. 7 in the server PC may be fetched into the control device 19 of the device 1 in advance, and the above-described processing may be performed by the control device 19. Further, a barcode is also affixed to the reel 70, but this barcode usually includes the model number of the reel 70, and this model number may be different from the component ID as shown in FIGS. In many cases, it is impossible to know the component ID by simply reading the barcode on the reel 70. However, as described above, the barcode is affixed to the feeder 20 and the feeder serial number is read. A component ID can be determined based on the component-related data.

In the second process, the feeder installation position is searched based on the obtained component ID and the component installation position related data of all the apparatuses 1A, 1B, and 1C shown in FIG. 8, and the corresponding feeder installation position is detected (Step S2b). .
Then, the result of the feeder verification is displayed on a verification result field 33g on the monitor screen 30 shown in FIG. 10 described later (Steps S4, 5).

In Step S2b, in the case of the production model “Program2” having the part installation position related data shown in FIG. 8A, the installation position of the feeder having the feeder serial number “TF10000-2091” is the position of the apparatus 1A as shown by the bold line. Only FD03. Therefore, “FD03” is displayed in the collation result field 33g of the monitor screen 30 of the display device 18 at the time of feeder installation shown in FIG. Note that F in FD03 indicates a feeder, D (U) indicates a feeder area 13D (U) (see FIG. 1), and 03 indicates the third from the left in the drawing of FIG.
On the other hand, in the case of the production model “Program 3” having the part installation position related data shown in FIG. 8B, the installation position of the feeder having the feeder serial number “TF10000-2091” is FD03 of the apparatus 1A, as shown by the bold line. , FD11 of the apparatus 1B and FB11 of the apparatus 1B. Therefore, similarly, “FD03”, “FD11”, and “FB11” are displayed in the collation result field 33g of the monitor screen 30 of the display device 18 when the feeder is installed as shown in FIG.

  According to the above-described embodiment, when setting up the feeder replacement, holding the feeder 20 and the reel 70 with both hands, further holding the barcode reader 56, and reading the barcode 58 with the barcode reader 56 is very difficult. Although it is difficult, the reel 70 that is easier to place than the feeder 20 is placed on, for example, a desk or the like (if the desk is not at hand, it can be placed at least on the reel storage section 52), and the other side with the feeder 20 held in one hand. The bar code reader 56 is held by the hand and the bar code 58 indicating the feeder serial number affixed to the feeder 20 is read by the bar code reader 56, and the feeder is exchanged based on the feeder part related data and the line part installation position related data. This makes it possible to perform setup work easily and reliably.

  In the two cases described above, the feeder installation position can be detected as a result of the feeder verification, but it may not be possible. In FIG. 7, the cause that cannot be detected is that the feeder serial number itself is not registered, or the component ID associated with the feeder serial number is not registered. Also, in FIG. 8, the component ID associated in FIG. 7 is not associated with the feeder installation position in FIG. Accordingly, whether or not collation is possible is determined in Step S3. If there is no collation, the fact that the collation could not be collated in the instruction information field 33e of the monitor screen 30 and the cause thereof are displayed in the collation result field 33g of the monitor screen 30 as shown in FIG. (Step S5). In FIG. 11, the cause of the inability to collate is an example in which the feeder serial number itself has not been registered. If there is, the process goes to Step S4 as described above, and the feeder installation position is displayed on the collation result field 33g of the monitor screen 30 shown in FIG.

Next, according to the instruction in the instruction information field 33e on the monitor screen 30 shown in FIG. 10, the feeder 20 is installed at the corresponding feeder installation position (Step S6).
In the case of the production model “Program 2” shown in FIG. 10A, the verified feeder installation position is one, and the feeder 20 is simply installed at the corresponding feeder installation position, and the electronic components are supplied to the feeder 20. The supply reel 70 to be stored is stored in the reel storage unit 52.

  However, in the case of the production model “Program 2” shown in FIG. 10B, the verified feeder installation positions are three. If the three devices are only the same device, it is sufficient to simply select one device. However, if the device is divided into a plurality of devices 1 as in this example, it is necessary to devise from the reduction of the movement time of the worker, that is, the setup time. There is. Which method is better depends on the configuration and arrangement of the apparatus. For example, there are the following three methods.

The first method is simply selected and installed regardless of the apparatus 1. This method is relatively effective when the number of devices is small.
The second method preferentially selects the feeder installation position of the apparatus 1 serving as a base on which an operator operates, for example, the apparatus 1A. In this case, if the feeder installation position can be detected in the apparatus 1A, the search may be terminated, or the search may be completed until the end, and the predetermined priority order, for example, the order from the base apparatus 1 performing the operation, is closer. The collation result orchid 33g may be displayed from the top to the bottom, and the collation result orchid 33g may be described by assigning a number from 1 to a higher priority. If there is no feeder installation position corresponding to the device 1A, for example, the adjacent device 2 is selected.

According to the third method, a feeder installation position with a lower number is preferentially selected regardless of the base apparatus 1 in the upstream side. In this embodiment in the second and third methods, the FD 103 is used. The second and third methods are relatively effective when the number of devices is large or the line configuration is a linear arrangement.
The fourth method adds to the first or second method a method in which priority is given to the installation of feeders (electronic parts) in one feeder area 13 when there are feeder areas 13 on both sides of each device. It is the method. This method is effective in the case of this embodiment.

Whichever method is used, the selected feeder installation position, for example, “FD03” is displayed in red, or only “FD03” selected as shown in FIG. 10A is displayed.
Further, the base device 1 shifts to the device 1B when all the devices 1A are completed, and shifts to the device 1C when all the devices 1B are terminated. If there is no installation position corresponding to the base device, the next priority is given to the base device.
Furthermore, the monitor screen 30 in the above work may be displayed simultaneously on the display devices 18 of all the devices 1, or may be displayed only on the display devices 18 of the devices 1 having priority or mainly priority.

  Next, a check is made on the installed feeder 20 (Step S7). When the feeder 20 is installed in the feeder installation unit 53 (see FIG. 2), a power source is connected to the installed feeder 20, and the feeder 20 stores, for example, the model number of the electronic component manufacturer in the memory in the feeder 20 in the apparatus 1. Send. The device 1 checks whether the model number corresponds to the electronic component having the component ID.

  Finally, it is determined whether or not the above-described processing has been performed on all the feeders 20. If not completed, the process returns to Step S1, and if completed, the process ends (Step S8).

  According to the embodiment described above, it is possible to provide a highly reliable electronic component mounting apparatus line or feeder setup method that can surely set an appropriate electronic component in the feeder cart as the entire electronic component mounting line.

  In particular, it is possible to reliably set an appropriate feeder (electronic component) in the feeder cart even if the feeder to be installed is not strictly discriminated in advance for the device 1A, the device 1B, and the device 1C. .

FIG. 12 is a diagram showing another embodiment of the collation result display 33g on the monitor screen 30 displaying the collation result. In the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 10, the feeder installation position is indicated by a symbol indicating the position. In a present Example, the map of each feeder installation position of the feeder installation part 53 (refer FIG. 2) in which a feeder is installed is shown, and the said feeder installation position is shown on the map. The hatched position indicates the position of the FD 103 installed this time shown in FIG. 10A and blinks in red. The black painted position indicates the position where it is already installed. Reference numerals 13U and 13U denote feeder areas shown in FIG. 1, and reference numeral 1A denotes an apparatus. If the display device 19 of each device simultaneously displays the feeder installation unit 53 in the device, the display of 1A indicating the device is unnecessary.
As another example, as shown in FIG. 2, an installation apparatus instruction lamp 35 and an installation position instruction lamp 36 are provided in the feeder area 13 and the feeder installation unit 53 of the apparatus 1, respectively. In this example, the installation apparatus instruction lamp 35 and the installation position instruction lamp 36 are lit or blinked to indicate which apparatus is installed, and in which position the installation apparatus instruction lamp 36 is installed.

  As described above, according to the embodiment described above, a feeder (electronic component) can be more reliably set by visually instructing a position where the feeder is installed on a mounting line having a large number of installation positions.

  Finally, a second embodiment will be described in which a component ID is used instead of a feeder serial number as collation data. FIG. 13 is a diagram in which the bar code 58 attachment position shown in FIG. 1 is changed from a feeder to a supply reel 70 containing electronic components. The present embodiment can be applied to the case where the barcode 58 contains in advance part IDs used together with feeder installation positions for each apparatus in the line part installation position related data as shown in FIG. is there. Alternatively, even if the component ID is not directly displayed on the barcode 58, the model number and the component ID can be applied if the conversion table or the like is stored in the apparatus 1 or the server PC after the reading and can be converted. Assume that the association shown in FIG. 7 is performed when the supply tape 60 is attached to the feeder 20. In this embodiment, since the part ID is directly read from the barcode 58, the feeder part related data is not necessary for associating the collation data with the feeder installation position. Therefore, the process of searching for the component ID by the feeder serial number shown in Step 2a shown in FIG. 6 is not necessary. Other processes and the basic configuration are the same as those of the first embodiment.

  In the second embodiment, the same effect as that of the first embodiment can be obtained.

  In the first and second embodiments, a muchip or the like can be used instead of the barcode 58 used as a medium for recording the feeder serial number and the component ID.

Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the third embodiment, a feeder serial number stored in the feeder 20 is utilized.
When replacing the feeder, it is very difficult for the operator to read the barcode of the feeder with the barcode reader while holding the feeder and the reel to which the feeder supplies the parts, and the feeder barcode is read by placing the supply reel 70 Work also takes time. For this reason. The serial number of the feeder 20 is stored in the memory of the feeder 20, and the feeder 20 is temporarily connected to any available feeder installation unit 53 of the nearby device 1, thereby being electrically connected to the feeder 20. The device 1 that is enabled to communicate data reads the serial number from the memory of the feeder 20 and the feeder 20 should be placed based on the read serial number in the same manner as when the barcode is read. The feeder installation position may be displayed on the monitor. By doing in this way, the manual operation | work of barcode reading becomes easy and an operator's work can be simplified.

  Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, various alternatives, modifications, and variations can be made by those skilled in the art based on the above description, and the present invention is not limited to the various embodiments described above without departing from the spirit of the present invention. It encompasses alternatives, modifications or variations.
