Abstract

An electronic parts mounting apparatus for divisionally recognizing an electronic part (2) even when the apparatus is arranged in such that the relative positional relation between a recognition camera (4) and a nozzle (1) cannot be varied. The electronic part (2) is vacuum-clamped by a nozzle (1), the posture of the nozzle (1) or the posture of the electronic part (2) is changed a plurality of times by a rotary driving member (3), and a part of the electronic part (2) imaged by the recognition camera (4) every time the posture of the electronic part (2) is changed, whereby the part is recognized. Thus, the recognition of the contour of the electronic part (2) becomes possible, and the electronic part can be mounted accurately on a circuit board by making a positional correction on the basis of the amount of deviation obtained.
