A tape feeder that is capable of preventing poor suction of electronic components and thus preventing reduction in production efficiency when a carrier tape is cut by hand or the like without using a tool such as scissors. A tape feeder 31 is detachably mounted on a component mounting machine configured to mount an electronic component on a circuit board with the use of a suction nozzle, the tape feeder 31 including a main body 31a including a carrier tape in which the electronic component is enclosed, and a tape guide 31c disposed on an upper surface of a end portion of the main body at which a component suction position Pn where the electronic component is sucked is provided, and configured to guide the carrier tape, wherein the tape feeder 31 includes an end portion guide 31d (60) formed as a separate member from the main body 31a and the tape guide 31c that is detachably attached to the main body 31a. |
