Such marking may be displayed only at the joining portion, and in some cases, marking may be performed at three to ten places before and after the joined portion as a predetermined portion adjacent to the joining portion in consideration of a tolerance.

To this end, first, the bonded tape carrier package is transferred (S90), and a predetermined portion adjacent to the bonded portion is reached through the displacement sensor to determine whether the punching unit 120 is reached (S100).

Next, when it is determined that the punching unit 120 has been reached, the portion to be punched and displayed is fixed by surface contact pressure with the pressure fixing plate 121 (S110), and the puncher 125 is driven to punch the portion to be displayed. The punching operation is performed by a method of forming the hole 1c or the like (S120). This process is repeated to remove and edit the defective portion of the tape carrier package (1).
