To improve utility of a component supply system which supplies components in a bulk state to a component receiving section of an automated assembly apparatus. When a component support member 150 is moved forward with respect to a component feeder 82, the component feeder 82 is vibrated, and the components are discharged from the component feeder 82 on a component support surface 198 and are supported in a dispersed state. An imaging device 90 moves in a lateral direction, images a plurality of components on the component support surface 198 all at once, and a suction nozzle of a component holding head 300 holds a component 480 with a lead in a state appropriate to be held. The suction nozzle is rotated and pivoted to insert the component 480 in a component receiving member 460 of one of component carriers 450 and 452 that is positioned at a component receiving position, with the lead oriented downward. The component carrier which receives the component 480 is moved to a component delivery position, and the component 480 is delivered to a mounting head of an electronic circuit assembly apparatus. The component 480 which remains on the component support surface 198 is returned to a component feeder 82 by the component return device 88. |
