METHOD OF GENERATING DATA ON COMPONENT ARRANGEMENT

摘要

A method of generating data on component arrangement which can reduce the moving distance of a mounting head in an electronic component mounting machine and can improve the mounting efficiency. The distribution center coordinates and distributed state values of electronic components on a circuit board assorted in accordance with their kind are determined and the arrangement position of each electronic component at a component feed section is determined based on the distribution center coordinates. When the arrangement positions of more than two kinds of electronic components thus determined are the same, the arrangement position of the electronic component having a smaller distributed state value is preferentially determined.
