Abstract

A plurality of self-propelled system heads (5) are made to independently travel along a closed-loop travel track (6) in a manner that the heads do not interfere with each other by controlling respective drive devices (4). Components (2) from a component supply device (8) are held by component holding members (3) of the heads, and thereafter, the components held by the component holding members are mounted on boards (1) positioned by board positioning devices (7).
