2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a system configuration of an example of a conventional device-to-be-attached product data processing apparatus and a system to process the to-be-attached product data. In the example of FIG. 6, the assembly is a circuit board, and the mounted article is a circuit component.

In FIG. 6, a component name represented by a code number, coordinate values (X, Y) indicating the arrangement of a circuit component (hereinafter sometimes referred to as a component) on a circuit board, and a component orientation are shown. Data such as a rotation angle is displayed on the graphic display 1 and input to a computer-aided design processing device, that is, a CAD (Computer Aid-ed Design) processing device 2 to create drawing data.

The drawing data is CAD data.
It is stored in the base 13. The drawing data stored in the CAD data base 13 is output as a list as a list by the board component mounting diagram 14 by a printer, for example.

Conventionally, when the circuit component is mounted on the circuit board 5 by the component mounting machine 4 based on the board component mounting diagram 14 as described above, it has been conventionally performed as follows.

That is, an operator (programmer) reads the data shown in FIG. 14 for mounting the board components, and determines the shape, size and distance between the components, the operating speed of the component mounting machine 4 used for mounting the components, In consideration of the movement amount of the reel that supplies the components, the mounting sequence of the components has been determined by experience and intuition so that the components can be mounted on the circuit board 5 efficiently in the shortest time.

The character display device 1
By operating the keyboard of the NC program creation processing device 16 while watching the display of 5, the determined mounting order is stored in the NC data 17 via the NC program creation processing device 16.

Parts were attached to.

[0009]

However, according to the above-described mounted-part data processing apparatus of the assembly and the mounted-part data processing method, the mounting order is artificially set based on the experience and intuition of the operator. Since it is decided and the key is input to the device manually, it takes a long time to create the program, and sometimes the key is input by mistake.
There was a risk of incorrect mounting of parts.

Further, a skilled person having knowledge of optimization is required to create a program, and how the worker programs the mounting sequence varies depending on the skill of the operator, and thus the degree of completion of the program varies. As a result, the mounting time of the parts varies, and it is difficult to shorten the mounting time. Further, since the degree of completion of the program is not uniform, there is a problem that it is difficult to make a production plan when a large number of types of circuit boards are continuously produced.

In view of the above points, in the present invention, it is possible to output to-be-mounted data in which the mounting order of the parts is optimized regardless of the artificial work to the parts mounting machine, so that even an unskilled person can perform uniform optimization. An object of the present invention is to provide an attached product data processing apparatus for an assembly and a mounted product data processing method capable of shortening processing time and mounting time and eliminating the risk of erroneous mounting.

[0012]

The above-mentioned problems can be solved by the following constitution.

That is, the assembly data for the assembly, the mounting machine data for the component mounting machine, and the mounted product data for a plurality of mounted products mounted at predetermined positions of the assembly by the component mounting machine are stored.

1 is a block diagram showing a configuration of an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an outline of an example of a system configuration to which the present invention is applied. In the figure, as an example of the present invention, the circuit board 5 represents an assembly, and the component mounting machine 4
Represents a so-called chip mounter which is a device for mounting a chip component (hereinafter, also referred to as a component), which is a mounted product, on the circuit board 5.

In FIG. 2, 1 is a graphic display, 2 is a CAD processor, 3 is a data base, and 6 is a CAD system.

In the CAD system 6 of FIG. 2, the board data such as the shape and size of the circuit board 5 (that is, the assembly data about the assembly) and the part name (code number) of the part mounted on the circuit board 5. And component data such as X-coordinates, Y-coordinates, and polarities indicating the arrangement of the components on the circuit board 5 (that is, the data of the mounted product about the mounted product) are displayed on the screen of the graphic display 1 as a drawing C.
It is input to the AD processing device 2 and a manufacturing drawing of the circuit board is created.

The board data and the component data are stored in the data base 3, and the component data such as the shape and size of each component according to the component name are also stored in the data base 3. Further, drawing data is created by the CAD processing device 2 and stored in the data base 3.

Further, the data base 3 is provided with a component mounting machine 4
Is pre-populated and stored, and C
The AD processing device 2 outputs to the component mounting machine 4 data in which the component mounting sequence is optimized so that the component mounting machine 4 can efficiently complete the component mounting on the circuit board 5 in the shortest time.

Referring back to FIG. 1, the data bases are the CAD data base 3a and the mounting machine data base 3
It is configured to include b. In addition, the CAD processing device 2 includes a data extraction unit 7, an optimization processing unit 8, and a format conversion unit 9.
(Supplying means) and the hard disk 10 (supplying means).

The component mounting machine 4 has a well-known structure, and is roughly composed of a head turn table, a reel shaft, a positioning table, and an XY table. A plurality of arms are radially arranged on a disk-shaped head turntable that is rotationally driven, and heads for picking up components are respectively provided at the tips of the arms.

A plurality of reels for respectively supplying different parts are arranged on the reel shaft, and the reel shaft moves to supply a predetermined part to each head. The XY table on which the circuit board is mounted is moved in two directions orthogonal to each other, and the components are mounted from the respective heads to predetermined positions on the circuit board.

The head sucking the component from the reel is once placed on the positioning position on the positioning table while the head turn table rotates and reaches the mounting portion of the circuit board, and the head of the component is placed on the circuit board. It is adsorbed by the head again so as to be oriented according to the orientation.

A plurality of positioning positions are prepared according to the type of parts. For example, different positioning positions are used for ICs and resistors. Further, there are a positioning table in which one positioning position is arranged and a positioning table in which two positioning positions are arranged.

The CAD data base 3a stores component data and board data necessary for designing a circuit board. On the other hand, in the mounting machine data base 3b, the mounting machine data of the component mounting machine 4 is stored in advance by the operator's key input.

The mounting machine data includes, for example, the number of reels used, which parts are supplied by which reel, the number of positioning tables and positioning positions, the moving speed of the reel shaft and positioning table, and the rotation of the head turn table. It is data representing a mounting speed such as a speed. Therefore, these data are naturally different depending on the use of the component mounting machine used.

The data extraction unit 7 extracts the component data, the board data, and the mounting machine data from the CAD data base 3a and the mounting machine data base 3b as required.

The optimization processing unit 8 performs processing for optimizing the mounting order of the components so that the component mounting machine 4 can complete the mounting of the components in the shortest time according to these data, and the component name (code number), A mounting data file is created which is composed of the X-coordinates, Y-coordinates of the parts, and the polarities of the parts, and which is in the order according to the mounting order.

The mounting data file is converted into a format that can be read by the component mounting machine 4 by the format conversion section 9, and then stored on the hard disk 10, for example. The mounting data file stored in the hard disk 10 is copied to the floppy disk as needed, and is input to the component mounting machine 4 via the floppy disk.

The format-converted mounting data file is supplied to the component mounting machine 4 not via the hard disk 10 but via other recording devices and recording media such as an optical disk, a magnetic tape, and a semiconductor memory. It may be configured to.

When the CAD processing device 2 and the component mounting machine 4 are arranged close to each other, the mounting data file is directly supplied from the format conversion section 9 to the component mounting machine 4 by an electric wire. Is also good.

FIGS. 3 and 4 are flowcharts showing the processing method in the optimization processing unit 8 which is the main part of this embodiment, and both drawings are continuous views at points I and II.

In FIG. 3, the processes of steps 31 to 35 are executed to divide the parts into groups according to the degree of freedom of mounting the parts, and thereafter, the processes of steps 41 to 54 shown in FIG. 4 are executed after step 36. Determine the mounting order of components.

First, component data is extracted from the data extracted by the data extraction unit 7 (step 31). next,
Parts are classified by the same kind of parts, that is, resistors are resistors, ICs are ICs, and transistors are transistors (step 32).

Next, the components are sorted (sorted) in descending order of the degree of freedom of mounting. In the component mounting machine 4 which is generally used at present, a component having a small outer shape and a low height is configured to be easily mounted even if a component having a large outer shape and a high height is mounted on the circuit board.
In step 34, the components are sorted in ascending order of the component outline, and in step 34, the components are sorted in the ascending order of component height.

However, by improving the head of the component mounting machine, etc., it is possible to improve the components having a large outer shape and a high height, and the components having a small outer diameter and a low height on the circuit board so that they can be easily mounted. , Steps 33 and 34 may be arranged to sort in the reverse order. In this example,
As a general example of the current situation, the sorting is performed in the above order.

Then, in accordance with the results of steps 32 to 34, the parts are divided into L groups in descending order of the degree of freedom of mounting (step 35). The group with the highest degree of freedom is the first group, and the group with the lowest degree of freedom is the Lmax group. In the subsequent processing, L represents a group, X represents a reel, and n represents a component mounting order.

Next, in the first group, the component mounted closest to the origin (the origin designated on the component mounting diagram) is the first mounted component, and the reel supplying the same kind of component as the first reel is the first reel. (Step 36), L = 1, X = 1,
Set n = 1 (step 37).

Next, the Lth (= 1) th group and the Xth (= 1) th group
Among the reel parts, a part that can be mounted at high speed is selected in a short time after the n-th (= 1) mounted component is mounted (step 38). Here, the component that can be mounted at high speed is a component that is mounted at a position within, for example, 30 mm from the position at which the n-th mounting component is mounted and has an arrangement angle within 180 °, that is, the relative movement distance of the head on the circuit board. (That is, the moving distance of the XY table) is short, the rotation angle of the head is small, and the mounting time is short.

Then, step 41 is executed to judge whether or not the parts that can be mounted at high speed have been selected. If not selected (the number of parts to be selected)> 0, the process proceeds to step 45 and subsequent steps to select the parts. If (the number of sorted parts)> 0, the process proceeds to step 42 and the subsequent steps.

In step 42, among the components that can be mounted at high speed selected in step 41, the component having the shortest inter-component distance from the n-th mounted component is selected, and then this is selected as (n +
1) It is determined to be a mounted component (step 43), and 1 is added to n to set n = n + 1 (step 44).

Then, the processes of steps 38 and 41 are executed again to select the parts that can be mounted at high speed after the new n-th mounted component is mounted. In step 41, the above-described processing is repeatedly executed until (the number of sorted parts)> 0 is not satisfied, and as a result, the parts that can be mounted at high speed are continuously selected from the first mounted component.

When the parts that can be mounted at high speed are not consecutive and (the number of sorted parts)> 0 in step 41, subsequently, in step 45, comparison is made after the n-th mounted part in the L-th group X-th reel part is mounted. Parts to be mounted at medium speed in a very short time are selected (step 38). Here, a component that is mounted at medium speed (medium-speed mounting component) is a component other than the above-described components that can be mounted at high speed, and has an arrangement angle of 180 ° at a position within 30 mm from the position where the nth mounting component is mounted. The parts mounted in the above manner have a short head movement distance but a large head rotation angle.

Then, step 46 is executed to judge whether or not the medium-speed mounting parts have been selected. If they have been selected (the number of parts to be selected)> 0, the processes of steps 42 to 44 are executed, and then the process proceeds to step 38. Return.

Then, the process proceeds to step 41, and a process for determining whether or not the parts that can be mounted at high speed have been selected is executed again. In accordance with this result, the processing after step 45 or the processing after step 42 described above is repeated.

If the parts that can be mounted at high speed are not selected, the parts that can be mounted at medium speed are subsequently selected. In this case, the parts that are mounted at medium speed are continuously mounted. Further, if the parts that can be mounted at high speed are selected, the high-speed mounted parts are mounted again.
By the above processing, the high-speed mounting component is given priority over the first mounting component, and the components that can be mounted at high speed or medium speed are continuously selected.

In the above process, when (number of parts to be sorted)> 0 is not satisfied in step 46, then step 4
7 is executed, and among the parts which are not mounted in the L-th group X-th reel parts and which are mounted at a low speed for a relatively long time after the mounting of the n-th mounting part, the n-th mounting part (continuously The unmounted part that is the closest to the installed high-speed or medium-speed mounted part (most recent part) is selected.

By the way, in the present embodiment, depending on the time required to mount one component and then mount the next component,
In step 38 and step 45, the next mounted component is selected according to the result of classification into the above-mentioned three types of high-speed, medium-speed, and low-speed mounted components. However, for example, step 45
It is also conceivable to omit the processing of step 46 subsequent thereto and classify and sort the above-mentioned time standard for sorting the next mounted component into two types. Conversely, it may be subdivided into four types.

Returning to this embodiment and continuing the explanation, next,
Step 48 is executed to determine whether or not a part which is not mounted yet is closest to the nth mounted part is selected. If there is no unmounted part in the Lth group Xth reel part (the number of selected parts)> 0, step 49 and the following steps are performed. Proceed to processing. On the other hand, if there is an unmounted component (the number of sorted components)> 0, the (n + 1) th mounted component to be mounted next is determined (step 43), and the processing from step 44 onward is executed.

Then, steps 38 and 41 are executed again.
The processing of 48 is repeatedly executed. That is, high-speed mounting components are prioritized from the new n-th mounting component, and components that can be mounted at high speed or medium speed are continuously selected (step 3).
8, steps 41-46). When (the number of parts to be sorted)> 0 in step 46 and the parts that can be mounted at high speed or medium speed are no longer continuous, the unmounted component closest to the nth mounted component is selected as described above (steps 47 and 48).

When the above is repeatedly executed and (the number of selected parts)> 0 is not satisfied in step 48, all the parts classified into the same group and supplied from the same reel are selected, and the mounting order is determined. To be done.

When the unmounted component closest to the nth mounted component is not sorted (that is, (the number of sorted components)>
0), it is determined whether or not there is an unmounted component in the Lth group (step 49). If there are unmounted parts, step 50
In the L-th group, the component closest to the n-th mounted component is determined as the (n + 1) th mounted component, and the component type is determined as the (X + 1) th reel. Then, in step 51, 1 is added to each of X and n, and L = L, X = X + 1 and n = n + 1. Then, returning to step 38, for the next mounting component of the next reel,
The processes of step 38 and steps 41 to 51 are repeatedly executed.

When the L-th group components of all reels are selected and the mounting order is determined by performing the above processing, there is no unmounted component in the L-th group in step 49, and the process proceeds to step 52. In step 52, it is determined whether or not the optimization of the mounting order is completed for all the groups classified into L groups according to the degree of freedom of mounting.

At the beginning, L = 1, which has the highest degree of freedom of mounting, and L = Lmax is not satisfied.
The component closest to the nth mounted component in the +1 group is the n + 1th component.
The mounted component and its component type are determined to be the (X + 1) th reel, and 1 is added to X and n and 1 is added to L in step 54.
Are added to set L = L + 1, X = X + 1, and n = n + 1. Then, the process returns to step 38, and the processes of step 38 and steps 41 to 54 are repeatedly executed for the component of the group having the next highest degree of freedom of mounting.

As a result of the above, the mounting order is determined for each group in the order of the highest degree of freedom of mounting, and in the order of the fastest mounting speed among the components supplied from the same reel. Then, when the optimization of the mounting order of the group having the lowest degree of freedom of mounting is completed, L = Lmax is established in step 51, and all the processes are terminated.

By the processing of the optimization processing unit 8 described above, the component mounting order is optimized so that the component mounting machine 4 can complete the component mounting in the shortest time, and the mounting data according to the optimized mounting sequence. A file is created and input to the component mounting machine 4 via the hard disk 10 as described above.

Therefore, according to the present embodiment, it is not necessary for the operator to key-in to the component mounting machine 4 while looking at the list output from the CAD processing device 2 as in the prior art, so that it is possible to make a mistake in viewing or key-in error. There is no erroneous input, there is no risk of erroneous mounting, and component mounting accuracy is improved. Moreover, since the working time can be significantly shortened, there is a feature that labor can be saved.

For example, in the case of performing an optimization process for mounting 100 chip parts including 35 kinds of parts on a circuit board having an outer dimension of 70 mm × 50 mm, the conventional artificial work depends on the experience of the operator. In contrast to the time required for 4 hours to 8 hours, the present embodiment has a remarkable effect that the optimization process can be completed in about 15 minutes.

Furthermore, since the mounting order is determined by the processing shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 without depending on the experience and intuition of the operator, even a beginner can program at the same level regardless of the skill level of the operator. It is possible to shorten the optimization processing time and the mounting time uniformly. Therefore, it is easy to make a production plan for many kinds.

Further, as shown in FIG. 1, in this embodiment,
The data extraction unit 4 extracts the component data, the board data, and the mounting machine data from the CAD data base 3a and the mounting machine data base 3b stored in the computer, and the optimization processing unit 8 shows them in FIGS. It is configured to perform the optimization process. However, regardless of the configuration of FIG. 1, the following configuration may be considered.

FIG. 5 is a block diagram of a modification of the present invention. In the figure, a data input device 1 such as a key board
1, the component data, the board data, and the mounting machine data are input to the optimization processing unit 8, and the output data that has been subjected to the optimization processing shown in FIGS. The component data, the board data, and the mounting machine data are supplied to the mounting machine 4 and are stored and stored in the CAD data base 3c and the mounting machine data base 3d.

According to this example, more time is required for key input of each data than in the above-mentioned embodiment, but the optimization process is performed in a short time as in the above-mentioned embodiment regardless of the skill level of the operator. The same effect as above can be obtained.

In each of the above-described embodiments, the present invention is applied to the circuit board as the assembly and the chip part as the mounted product. For example, the assembly is mounted on the chassis of the automobile and the mounted product is mounted on the chassis. The same effect as described above can be obtained even if the vehicle parts are configured as a vehicle part and the mounting order of the vehicle parts is programmed by a robot device that is a part mounting machine. The assembly, the article to be mounted, and the component mounting machine are not limited to these, and various other various applications can be considered.

Further, in the above-mentioned respective embodiments, when the design of the circuit board is changed and the component constants or polarities of some of the 100 chip components to be mounted are changed, the number of changes is small, Even if the work time is almost the same as the time to perform the above optimization process again for all the part data including the changed contents, even if these data are corrected manually by the worker. I do not care.

This correction work may be performed in any part between the output part of each data base 3a, 3b and the input part of the component mounting machine 4 in the block configuration of FIG. 1, and the block of FIG. In the configuration, it may be performed at any part between the data input device 11 and the input section of the component mounting machine 4.

By the way, in each of the above embodiments, it has been explained that the component mounting sequence is optimized for one type of circuit board, and the optimization processing time to the mounting work time by one component mounting machine is shortened. .. However, a plurality of component mounting machines may be simultaneously operated in the mounting sequence optimized as described above, and components may be simultaneously mounted on a plurality of circuit boards of the same type.

Further, in consideration of the case where the component mounting machine is continuously operated for a plurality of types of circuit boards one after another, the component mounting order is not optimized only for one type of circuit board, but a plurality of types of circuit boards are used. It is an improvement of the present invention to further reduce the work time and to save labor by performing an optimization process that can reduce the mounting time of the parts as a whole when the circuit boards are continuously operated. You can think of it as

That is, between the processing of step 31 and the processing of step 32 shown in FIG. 3, processing for determining whether or not the previously optimized circuit board and the circuit board to be optimized this time are similar boards is added. However, in the case of similar substrates, a method of performing different mounting sequence optimization processing from the previous time for non-identical boards and shortening the processing time by using the previous processing results for the same parts can be considered as an example. ..

[0069]

As described above, according to the present invention, output data configured such that the component mounting machine mounts a plurality of mounted products in a mounting sequence optimized to shorten the mounting time of the assembly is obtained. By supplying the data to the component mounting machine, it is not necessary to artificially input the data of the mounting sequence, so that there is no erroneous input regardless of the operator and no erroneous mounting of the mounted product. In addition, it has excellent features such as data entry in a short time and work time can be shortened.
