Abstract
The surface mounting method includes: transferring the PCB to one conveyer among multiple conveyers capable of moving from a first transfer; transferring the PCB to another conveyer; transferring the PCB to one conveyer, while electronic parts from a parts feeder are mounted onto the transferred PCB; mounting the electronic parts from the parts feeder again onto the transferred PCB, while the PCB onto which the parts have been mounted is transferred to the second transfer; and transferring the PCB onto which the parts have been mounted again to the second transfer, while a new PCB is transferred to one conveyer of the conveyers from the first transfer.
