Abstract
A component mounting system includes first to third (pickup, transfer, and placement) stations. A component supplied at a component supply is picked up by a transport head at the pickup station and then transferred to a placement head at the transfer station. The placement head carries the component to the placement station where the component is placed and mounted onto a substrate such as a circuit board. The component, when held by the placement head, is recognized by an imaging device at or in the vicinity of the transfer station.
