COMPONENT MOUNTING APPARATUS, COMPONENT MOUNTING HEAD, AND COMPONENT MOUNTING METHOD

摘要

To provide a component mounting apparatus in which minute loading pressure force can be accurately detected. A component mounting head of the component mounting apparatus comprises a movable portion having a movable shaft and an attracting bit portion, a weight compensation mechanism which is engaged with the movable shaft and, based on the total weight of a component attracted to the attracting bit portion and the movable portion, compensates the gravity of the total weight; a force detecting unit for detecting vertical force which acts on the movable portion; and a driving unit for vertically moving the force detecting unit. A control unit of the component mounting apparatus controls the driving unit so that the detection value of the force detecting unit becomes a target value.
