PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a ball supply device that can surely supply balls to a ball sticking nozzle one by one even when the supplied balls have very small sizes. SOLUTION: The ball supply device is provided with a turntable which has ball fitting holes formed along the same circumference in its peripheral edge section and is inclined in a rotatable state. The fitting holes are connected to a negative pressure source. The supply device is also provided with storing section forming members which form a ball storing section on the upper surface of the turntable. When the turntable is rotated and the ball fitting holes pass through the ball storing section, balls are fitted in the holes and transported to the ball sucking position of the ball sticking nozzle.
