制御装置50は、図3に示すように、状態認識部52を備える。状態認識部52は、部品カメラ41の撮像により取得された画像データM3に基づいて、複数の吸着ノズル34による部品92の保持状態を認識する。具体的には、状態認識部52は、画像データM3を画像処理し、装着ヘッド33の基準位置に対する各部品92の位置および角度を認識する。このとき、状態認識部52は、画像処理された画像データM3において部品92が占める領域の形状や面積に基づいて、部品92の位置および角度を認識する。 2-1.State recognition unit 52
As shown in FIG. 3, thecontrol device 50 includes a state recognition unit 52. The state recognition unit 52 recognizes the holding state of the parts 92 by the plurality of suction nozzles 34 based on the image data M3 acquired by the imaging of the parts camera 41. Specifically, the state recognition unit 52 performs image processing on the image data M3 and recognizes the position and angle of each component 92 with respect to the reference position of the mounting head 33. At this time, the state recognition unit 52 recognizes the position and angle of the component 92 based on the shape and area of the area occupied by the component 92 in the image-processed image data M3.
制御装置50は、図3に示すように、状態認識部52を備える。状態認識部52は、部品カメラ41の撮像により取得された画像データM3に基づいて、複数の吸着ノズル34による部品92の保持状態を認識する。具体的には、状態認識部52は、画像データM3を画像処理し、装着ヘッド33の基準位置に対する各部品92の位置および角度を認識する。このとき、状態認識部52は、画像処理された画像データM3において部品92が占める領域の形状や面積に基づいて、部品92の位置および角度を認識する。 2-1.
As shown in FIG. 3, the
また、本実施形態において、状態認識部52は、吸着ノズル34に保持された部品92の外観形状に基づいて、部品92が実行予定の装着動作に適するか否かを保持状態として認識する。つまり、状態認識部52による保持状態には、装着動作への適否判定の結果が含まれる。ここで、部品92が装着動作に適するには、例えば制御プログラムM1により指定された種類であり、吸着ノズル34に許容範囲内の位置および姿勢で保持され、且つ部品92自体に不良がないことを要する。
Further, in the present embodiment, the state recognition unit 52 recognizes whether or not the part 92 is suitable for the mounting operation scheduled to be executed as a holding state based on the appearance shape of the part 92 held by the suction nozzle 34. That is, the holding state by the state recognition unit 52 includes the result of the suitability determination for the mounting operation. Here, in order for the component 92 to be suitable for mounting operation, for example, it is a type specified by the control program M1, the suction nozzle 34 is held at a position and orientation within an allowable range, and the component 92 itself is not defective. It takes.
つまり、状態認識部52は、吸着ノズル34が保持している部品92の外観形状などから割り出された種類が、制御プログラムM1により指定された種類と相違する場合に、その部品92が実行予定の装着動作に不適と判定する。なお、状態認識部52は、部品92の外観形状が正常に割り出せない場合には、上記と同様に不適部品と判定する。
That is, when the type determined from the appearance shape of the component 92 held by the suction nozzle 34 is different from the type specified by the control program M1, the state recognition unit 52 plans to execute the component 92. It is judged that it is not suitable for the mounting operation of. If the appearance shape of the component 92 cannot be normally determined, the state recognition unit 52 determines that the component 92 is an unsuitable component in the same manner as described above.
ここで、図4に示すように、吸着ノズル34の先端の吸着面が部品92の上面に対して平行に接触せずに、部品92が傾斜して保持されることがある。このような場合に、画像処理された画像データM3において、部品92は、図5に示すように、本来の矩形状をなさず、多角形状をなす。状態認識部52は、部品92が吸着ノズル34に適正な姿勢で保持されていない場合には、この部品92が実行予定の装着動作に不適と判定する。
Here, as shown in FIG. 4, the suction surface at the tip of the suction nozzle 34 may not come into contact with the upper surface of the component 92 in parallel, and the component 92 may be held at an angle. In such a case, in the image-processed image data M3, the component 92 does not have the original rectangular shape but has a polygonal shape as shown in FIG. When the component 92 is not held in the suction nozzle 34 in an appropriate posture, the state recognition unit 52 determines that the component 92 is unsuitable for the mounting operation scheduled to be executed.
また、状態認識部52は、部品92の外観から部品92の良否を判定する。例えば、状態認識部52は、部品92がリード部品である場合に、複数のリードの先端部が構成する平坦度が許容範囲内でない場合、複数のリードの先端部により構成される仮想平面と部品本体の下面との距離が許容範囲でない場合に、このリード部品が実行予定の装着動作に不適と判定する。
Further, the state recognition unit 52 determines the quality of the component 92 from the appearance of the component 92. For example, the state recognition unit 52 is a virtual plane and a component composed of the tips of the plurality of leads when the component 92 is a lead component and the flatness formed by the tips of the plurality of leads is not within the permissible range. If the distance from the lower surface of the main body is not within the permissible range, it is determined that this lead component is unsuitable for the mounting operation to be executed.
なお、状態認識部52は、部品カメラ41の他に、例えば装着ヘッド33に一体的に設けられるヘッドカメラユニットなどが部品92を側方、下方、または上方から撮像して取得された画像データを画像処理するようにしてもよい。また、状態認識部52は、部品カメラ41およびヘッドカメラユニットのそれぞれの撮像により取得された画像データM3を用いて、保持状態に認識処理を実行してもよい。
In addition to the component camera 41, the state recognition unit 52 captures image data acquired by, for example, a head camera unit integrally provided with the mounting head 33, capturing the component 92 from the side, below, or above. Image processing may be performed. Further, the state recognition unit 52 may execute the recognition process in the holding state by using the image data M3 acquired by the imaging of the component camera 41 and the head camera unit.
2-2.装着制御部53
制御装置50は、図3に示すように、装着制御部53を備える。装着制御部53は、祖着処理において、基板91に部品92が所定の姿勢で装着されるように装着ヘッド33による装着動作を制御する。このとき、装着制御部53は、状態認識部52により認識された保持状態に基づいて装着動作を制御する。つまり、装着制御部53は、吸着ノズル34に保持された部品92のQ軸に対する位置および角度のずれを補正するように、装着ヘッド33の位置、および吸着ノズル34のQ軸回りの角度を補正する。 2-2. Mountingcontrol unit 53
As shown in FIG. 3, thecontrol device 50 includes a mounting control unit 53. The mounting control unit 53 controls the mounting operation by the mounting head 33 so that the component 92 is mounted on the substrate 91 in a predetermined posture in the attachment process. At this time, the mounting control unit 53 controls the mounting operation based on the holding state recognized by the state recognition unit 52. That is, the mounting control unit 53 corrects the position of the mounting head 33 and the angle around the Q axis of the suction nozzle 34 so as to correct the deviation of the position and angle of the component 92 held by the suction nozzle 34 with respect to the Q axis. do.
制御装置50は、図3に示すように、装着制御部53を備える。装着制御部53は、祖着処理において、基板91に部品92が所定の姿勢で装着されるように装着ヘッド33による装着動作を制御する。このとき、装着制御部53は、状態認識部52により認識された保持状態に基づいて装着動作を制御する。つまり、装着制御部53は、吸着ノズル34に保持された部品92のQ軸に対する位置および角度のずれを補正するように、装着ヘッド33の位置、および吸着ノズル34のQ軸回りの角度を補正する。 2-2. Mounting
As shown in FIG. 3, the
また、装着制御部53は、装着動作において吸着ノズル34を下降させて部品92が基板91に接触した後に、吸着ノズル34を上昇させるとともに吸着ノズル34に正圧エアを供給して部品92の開放を試行する。そして、装着制御部53は、吸着ノズル34を部品92から離間させ、次の装着位置に部品92を装着すべく装着ヘッド33を移動させる。
Further, the mounting control unit 53 lowers the suction nozzle 34 in the mounting operation, and after the component 92 comes into contact with the substrate 91, raises the suction nozzle 34 and supplies positive pressure air to the suction nozzle 34 to open the component 92. Try. Then, the mounting control unit 53 separates the suction nozzle 34 from the component 92 and moves the mounting head 33 to mount the component 92 at the next mounting position.
ここで、装着制御部53は、状態認識部52により先に実行された保持状態の認識処理において、複数の部品92の少なくとも一部が実行予定の装着動作に適さない不適部品であると判定された場合に、部品92を廃棄する廃棄動作を実行する。具体的には、装着制御部53は、今回のPPサイクルにおいて、複数の部品92のうち不適部品に係る装着動作をスキップし、適合部品に係る装着動作のみを実行する。そして、装着制御部53は、機内に設置された廃棄ボックス45の上方に不適部品を保持する吸着ノズル34が位置するように装着ヘッド33を移動させる。
Here, in the holding state recognition process previously executed by the state recognition unit 52, the mounting control unit 53 determines that at least a part of the plurality of parts 92 is an unsuitable component that is not suitable for the mounting operation scheduled to be executed. In that case, the disposal operation of discarding the component 92 is executed. Specifically, in this PP cycle, the mounting control unit 53 skips the mounting operation related to the unsuitable component among the plurality of parts 92, and executes only the mounting operation related to the conforming component. Then, the mounting control unit 53 moves the mounting head 33 so that the suction nozzle 34 for holding the unsuitable parts is located above the waste box 45 installed in the machine.
その後に、装着制御部53は、吸着ノズル34への負圧エアの供給を遮断して部品92の開放を試行する。これにより、部品92は、廃棄ボックス45に落下して、回収される。上記のような廃棄動作の実行後に、装着制御部53は、次のPPサイクルを実行すべく装着ヘッド33を部品供給装置20側へと移動させる。このように、装着制御部53は、装着処理の実行中において、適合部品を装着する場合と、不適部品を廃棄する場合とに、吸着ノズル34から意図的に部品92を開放する。
After that, the mounting control unit 53 cuts off the supply of negative pressure air to the suction nozzle 34 and tries to open the component 92. As a result, the component 92 falls into the disposal box 45 and is collected. After executing the disposal operation as described above, the mounting control unit 53 moves the mounting head 33 to the component supply device 20 side in order to execute the next PP cycle. As described above, the mounting control unit 53 intentionally releases the component 92 from the suction nozzle 34 when the conforming component is mounted and when the inappropriate component is discarded during the mounting process.
2-3.判定部54
制御装置50は、図3に示すように、判定部54を備える。判定部54は、保持部材(吸着ノズル34)に部品92が付着している状態かの付着判定を実行する。ここで、吸着ノズル34の先端部がクレームはんだなどで汚れていると、装着制御部53により吸着ノズル34から部品92の開放が試行されたにも関わらず、吸着ノズル34に意図せずに部品92が付着した状態になることがある。そこで、判定部54は、吸着ノズル34から部品92の開放が試行された後に、上記の付着判定を実行する。 2-3.Judgment unit 54
As shown in FIG. 3, thecontrol device 50 includes a determination unit 54. The determination unit 54 executes an adhesion determination as to whether or not the component 92 is attached to the holding member (suction nozzle 34). Here, if the tip of the suction nozzle 34 is dirty with claim solder or the like, the suction nozzle 34 is unintentionally componentized even though the mounting control unit 53 has attempted to release the component 92 from the suction nozzle 34. 92 may be attached. Therefore, the determination unit 54 executes the above-mentioned adhesion determination after trying to release the component 92 from the suction nozzle 34.
制御装置50は、図3に示すように、判定部54を備える。判定部54は、保持部材(吸着ノズル34)に部品92が付着している状態かの付着判定を実行する。ここで、吸着ノズル34の先端部がクレームはんだなどで汚れていると、装着制御部53により吸着ノズル34から部品92の開放が試行されたにも関わらず、吸着ノズル34に意図せずに部品92が付着した状態になることがある。そこで、判定部54は、吸着ノズル34から部品92の開放が試行された後に、上記の付着判定を実行する。 2-3.
As shown in FIG. 3, the
具体的には、判定部54は、付着判定において、先ず部品カメラ41のカメラ視野に判定対象の吸着ノズル34が収まるように装着ヘッド33を移動させる。そして、判定部54は、部品カメラ41の撮像により取得された画像データM3に基づいて、対象の吸着ノズル34に部品92が付着している状態か、付着していない状態かを判定する。この付着判定における画像処理では、対象の吸着ノズル34の先端部の周辺における部品92の有無によって判定がなされる。
Specifically, in the adhesion determination, the determination unit 54 first moves the mounting head 33 so that the suction nozzle 34 to be determined fits in the camera field of view of the component camera 41. Then, the determination unit 54 determines whether the component 92 is attached or not attached to the target suction nozzle 34 based on the image data M3 acquired by the imaging of the component camera 41. In the image processing in this adhesion determination, the determination is made based on the presence or absence of the component 92 around the tip of the target suction nozzle 34.
このような部品カメラ41を用いる態様では、PPサイクルにおいて、最後の装着位置から部品供給装置20側へと装着ヘッド33を移動させる際に部品カメラ41の上方を経由する必要がある。そのため、装着ヘッド33の移動距離が長くなることに伴って、装着処理の所要時間が長くなり生産性を低下させるおそれがある。
In the embodiment using such a component camera 41, it is necessary to pass above the component camera 41 when moving the mounting head 33 from the last mounting position to the component supply device 20 side in the PP cycle. Therefore, as the moving distance of the mounting head 33 becomes longer, the time required for the mounting process becomes longer, which may reduce the productivity.
また、判定部54は、付着判定において、上記のように部品カメラ41を用いる態様の他に、例えばヘッドカメラユニットや専用のセンサを用いる態様を採用し得る。しかしながら、ヘッドカメラユニットや専用のセンサを用いる態様では、吸着ノズル34のセンシングなどが必要となり、付着判定に要する処理時間に応じて装着ヘッド33の移動に待機が発生すると、装着処理の所要時間が長くなるおそれがある。
Further, the determination unit 54 may adopt, for example, a mode in which a head camera unit or a dedicated sensor is used in addition to the embodiment in which the component camera 41 is used in the adhesion determination. However, in the embodiment using the head camera unit or the dedicated sensor, sensing of the suction nozzle 34 is required, and if the mounting head 33 waits for movement according to the processing time required for the adhesion determination, the time required for the mounting process is long. It may be long.
そこで、本実施形態において、判定部54は、付着判定を所定の条件下において省略することにより生産性の低下を抑制することができる構成を採用する。具体的には、判定部54は、部品92の外観形状、および吸着ノズル34が次回の装着動作において基板91に装着する予定の部品92の外観形状の類似度が基準値以上である場合に、吸着ノズル34に部品92が付着した状態かの付着判定を実行する。一方で、判定部54は、上記の類似度が基準値未満である場合に付着判定を省略する。
Therefore, in the present embodiment, the determination unit 54 adopts a configuration capable of suppressing a decrease in productivity by omitting the adhesion determination under a predetermined condition. Specifically, the determination unit 54 determines that the similarity between the external shape of the component 92 and the external shape of the component 92 to be mounted on the substrate 91 in the next mounting operation is equal to or higher than the reference value. It is executed to determine whether or not the component 92 is attached to the suction nozzle 34. On the other hand, the determination unit 54 omits the adhesion determination when the similarity is less than the reference value.
本実施形態において、判定部54は、部品92の外縁形状、部品92の特徴部の形状、および部品92の寸法の少なくとも1つを基準に部品92の外観形状の類似度を算出する。具体的には、判定部54は、吸着ノズル34から開放を試行された部品92の情報、および次回の装着動作に係る部品92の情報を、制御プログラムM1および部品情報M2から取得する。例えば、これらの部品92の種類が一致する場合には、判定部54は、両者の類似度が高い(図6における類似度の判定情報D3の「H」)と判定する。
In the present embodiment, the determination unit 54 calculates the similarity of the appearance shape of the component 92 based on at least one of the outer edge shape of the component 92, the shape of the feature portion of the component 92, and the dimension of the component 92. Specifically, the determination unit 54 acquires the information of the component 92 attempted to be released from the suction nozzle 34 and the information of the component 92 related to the next mounting operation from the control program M1 and the component information M2. For example, when the types of these parts 92 match, the determination unit 54 determines that the degree of similarity between the two is high (“H” in the determination information D3 of the degree of similarity in FIG. 6).
また、これらの部品92の種類が不一致であるが、部品情報M2の形状データ(外縁形状、特徴部、寸法)において、例えば部品92の外縁形状が判別不能なほどに、または判別誤認の可能性がある程度に非類似である場合には、判定部54は、両者の類似度が低い(図6における類似度の判定情報D3の「L」)と判定する。本実施形態において、類似度の基準値は、状態認識部52による保持状態の認識処理において、部品92が実行予定の装着動作に適合するか否かの適合判定において、誤認が発生し得る場合に類似度が高いと判定されるように設定される。
Further, although the types of these parts 92 do not match, in the shape data (outer edge shape, feature portion, dimensions) of the part information M2, for example, the outer edge shape of the part 92 may be indistinguishable or misidentified. When is dissimilar to some extent, the determination unit 54 determines that the similarity between the two is low (“L” in the determination information D3 of the similarity in FIG. 6). In the present embodiment, the reference value of the similarity is when a misidentification may occur in the conformity determination as to whether or not the component 92 conforms to the mounting operation scheduled to be executed in the holding state recognition process by the state recognition unit 52. It is set so that it is judged that the similarity is high.
上記のような構成によると、判定部54は、例えば部品92の廃棄動作が実行されて、吸着ノズル34から部品92の開放が試行された場合に、この廃棄部品と、次回の装着動作に係る装着予定部品との類似度が基準値よりも低ければ、付着判定を省略可能として実行しない。これにより、付着判定に要する時間が短縮されるとともに、処理負荷を軽減することができる。
According to the above configuration, the determination unit 54 relates to the discarded component and the next mounting operation when, for example, the disposal operation of the component 92 is executed and the component 92 is tried to be released from the suction nozzle 34. If the degree of similarity with the part to be mounted is lower than the reference value, the adhesion judgment can be omitted and is not executed. As a result, the time required for the adhesion determination can be shortened, and the processing load can be reduced.
ここで、付着判定を省略すると、僅かな確率で吸着ノズル34に部品92が付着した状態で、次回のPPサイクルが実行されることが想定される。そうすると、この吸着ノズル34を用いた採取動作において、装着予定部品が負圧エアにより吸着されることを廃棄部品が阻害したり、廃棄部品が吸着ノズル34の先端部の側壁に付着した状態で装着予定部品が吸着されたりし得る。
Here, if the adhesion determination is omitted, it is assumed that the next PP cycle will be executed with the component 92 attached to the suction nozzle 34 with a small probability. Then, in the sampling operation using the suction nozzle 34, the waste parts prevent the parts to be mounted from being sucked by the negative pressure air, or the waste parts are mounted in a state of being attached to the side wall of the tip of the suction nozzle 34. Scheduled parts may be sucked.
しかしながら、仮に上記のような採取動作が実行されたとしても、その後に実行される保持状態の認識処理において廃棄部品が不適部品として認識される。これにより、廃棄部品が次回のPPサイクルにおいて基板91に装着されることが防止される。一方で、廃棄部品と装着予定部品の外観形状の類似度が基準値以上である場合には、付着判定が実行されて、吸着ノズル34に部品92が付着しておらず、正常に次回のPPサイクルを実行可能かが判定される。
However, even if the above collection operation is executed, the discarded parts are recognized as unsuitable parts in the subsequent holding state recognition process. This prevents the discarded parts from being mounted on the substrate 91 in the next PP cycle. On the other hand, when the similarity between the appearance shapes of the discarded parts and the parts to be mounted is equal to or higher than the reference value, the adhesion determination is executed, the parts 92 are not attached to the suction nozzle 34, and the next PP is normally performed. It is determined whether the cycle can be executed.
2-4.通知部55
制御装置50は、図3に示すように、通知部55を備える。通知部55は、判定部54が付着判定を省略した後に、保持部材(吸着ノズル34)により次に保持された部品92が実行予定の装着動作に適さないと状態認識部52により判定された場合に、作業者に異常を通知する。つまり、例えば廃棄動作が実行された後に付着判定が省略され、吸着ノズル34に部品92が付着しているなどして、装着予定部品を対象とした保持状態の認識処理において不定部品を判定された場合に、通知部55は、異常を通知する。 2-4.Notification unit 55
As shown in FIG. 3, thecontrol device 50 includes a notification unit 55. When the notification unit 55 determines by the state recognition unit 52 that the component 92 held next by the holding member (suction nozzle 34) is not suitable for the mounting operation scheduled to be executed after the determination unit 54 omits the adhesion determination. Notify the worker of the abnormality. That is, for example, the adhesion determination is omitted after the disposal operation is executed, the component 92 is attached to the suction nozzle 34, and the indefinite component is determined in the holding state recognition process for the component to be mounted. In this case, the notification unit 55 notifies the abnormality.
制御装置50は、図3に示すように、通知部55を備える。通知部55は、判定部54が付着判定を省略した後に、保持部材(吸着ノズル34)により次に保持された部品92が実行予定の装着動作に適さないと状態認識部52により判定された場合に、作業者に異常を通知する。つまり、例えば廃棄動作が実行された後に付着判定が省略され、吸着ノズル34に部品92が付着しているなどして、装着予定部品を対象とした保持状態の認識処理において不定部品を判定された場合に、通知部55は、異常を通知する。 2-4.
As shown in FIG. 3, the
このとき、通知部55は、保持状態の認識処理において不適部品が検出されたことと併せて、吸着ノズル34に意図しない部品92が付着している可能性があることを通知してもよい。これにより、作業者は、対象の吸着ノズル34の確認を促され、必要に応じて吸着ノズル34のメンテナンスを実行することができる。
At this time, the notification unit 55 may notify that an unsuitable component is detected in the holding state recognition process and that an unintended component 92 may be attached to the suction nozzle 34. As a result, the operator is prompted to confirm the target suction nozzle 34, and can perform maintenance of the suction nozzle 34 as needed.
また、通知部55は、判定部54が実行した付着判定において保持部材(吸着ノズル34)に開放を試行された部品92が付着している場合に、作業者に異常を通知する。つまり、判定部54により付着判定が省略されずに実行され、この付着判定において吸着ノズル34に部品92が付着していることが検出された場合に、通知部55は、作業者に、吸着ノズル34に廃棄部品や不適部品が付着している可能性があることを通知する。
Further, the notification unit 55 notifies the operator of the abnormality when the component 92 that has been attempted to be opened is attached to the holding member (suction nozzle 34) in the adhesion determination executed by the determination unit 54. That is, the determination unit 54 executes the adhesion determination without omitting it, and when it is detected that the component 92 is attached to the suction nozzle 34 in this adhesion determination, the notification unit 55 informs the operator of the suction nozzle. Notify 34 that there is a possibility that waste parts or inappropriate parts are attached.
3.装着処理および保持状態の認識処理
3-1.部品装着機1による装着処理
部品装着機1による装着処理について図6および図7を参照して説明する。先ず、基板搬送装置10は、図7に示すように、基板91の搬入処理を実行する(S11)。これにより、機内に基板91が搬入されるとともに、機内の所定位置に位置決めされる。次に、装着制御部53は、PPサイクルにおける採取動作を複数回に亘り繰り返し実行する(S12)。続いて、状態認識部52は、複数の吸着ノズル34にそれぞれ保持された部品の保持状態の認識処理を実行する(S13)。 3. 3. Mounting process and holding state recognition process 3-1. Mounting process by thecomponent mounting machine 1 The mounting process by the component mounting machine 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 and 7. First, as shown in FIG. 7, the substrate transfer device 10 executes the carry-in process of the substrate 91 (S11). As a result, the substrate 91 is carried into the machine and is positioned at a predetermined position in the machine. Next, the mounting control unit 53 repeatedly executes the sampling operation in the PP cycle over a plurality of times (S12). Subsequently, the state recognition unit 52 executes a process of recognizing the holding state of the parts held by the plurality of suction nozzles 34 (S13).
3-1.部品装着機1による装着処理
部品装着機1による装着処理について図6および図7を参照して説明する。先ず、基板搬送装置10は、図7に示すように、基板91の搬入処理を実行する(S11)。これにより、機内に基板91が搬入されるとともに、機内の所定位置に位置決めされる。次に、装着制御部53は、PPサイクルにおける採取動作を複数回に亘り繰り返し実行する(S12)。続いて、状態認識部52は、複数の吸着ノズル34にそれぞれ保持された部品の保持状態の認識処理を実行する(S13)。 3. 3. Mounting process and holding state recognition process 3-1. Mounting process by the
装着制御部53は、認識処理(S13)の結果に基づいて、装着動作を複数回に亘り繰り返し実行する(S14)。装着動作において、装着制御部53は、制御プログラムM1により指定された所定の装着位置に、所定の装着角度で部品92が装着されるように、装着ヘッド33の動作を制御する。なお、PPサイクルに含まれる複数回の装着動作のうち、保持状態の認識処理(S13)において、採取した部品92が不適部品であるなどしてスキップするように設定されている場合に、装着制御部53は、当該装着動作をスキップする。
The mounting control unit 53 repeatedly executes the mounting operation a plurality of times based on the result of the recognition process (S13) (S14). In the mounting operation, the mounting control unit 53 controls the operation of the mounting head 33 so that the component 92 is mounted at a predetermined mounting position designated by the control program M1 at a predetermined mounting angle. It should be noted that, among the plurality of mounting operations included in the PP cycle, mounting control is performed when the sampled component 92 is set to be skipped because it is an inappropriate component in the holding state recognition process (S13). The unit 53 skips the mounting operation.
装着制御部53は、保持状態の認識処理(S13)において不適部品が検出された場合に(S15:Yes)、部品92の廃棄処理を実行する。装着制御部53は、先ず廃棄ボックス45に不適部品を廃棄する(S21)。これにより、装着ヘッド33に支持された複数の吸着ノズル34のそれぞれは、装着動作(S14)または廃棄動作(S21)の何れかによって部品92の開放を試行された状態にある。次に、判定部54は、廃棄した部品92の外観形状、およびその部品92を保持していた吸着ノズル34が次回の装着動作において基板91に装着する予定の部品92の外観形状の類似度が基準値以上であるか判定する(S22)。
The mounting control unit 53 executes the disposal process of the component 92 when an inappropriate component is detected in the holding state recognition process (S13) (S15: Yes). The mounting control unit 53 first disposes of unsuitable parts in the disposal box 45 (S21). As a result, each of the plurality of suction nozzles 34 supported by the mounting head 33 is in a state in which the opening of the component 92 is attempted by either the mounting operation (S14) or the disposal operation (S21). Next, the determination unit 54 has similarities between the external shape of the discarded component 92 and the external shape of the component 92 that the suction nozzle 34 holding the component 92 is scheduled to mount on the substrate 91 in the next mounting operation. It is determined whether the value is equal to or higher than the reference value (S22).
具体的には、図6に示すように、判定部54は、今回のPPサイクルにおける3番目(No.003)の部品92が不適部品(装着適否の判定情報D2における「NG」)と認識された場合に、この部品92の種類(Pc)を取得する。次に、判定部54は、不適部品の装着動作に割り当てられた吸着ノズル34(割り当て情報D1における「Nozzle03」)を特定し、この吸着ノズル34が次回のPPサイクルの装着動作にて装着する部品92の種類(Pk)を取得する。
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, the determination unit 54 recognizes that the third (No. 003) component 92 in this PP cycle is an inappropriate component (“NG” in the mounting suitability determination information D2). If so, the type (Pc) of this part 92 is acquired. Next, the determination unit 54 identifies the suction nozzle 34 (“Nozzle03” in the allocation information D1) assigned to the mounting operation of the inappropriate component, and the component to be mounted by this suction nozzle 34 in the mounting operation of the next PP cycle. Obtain 92 types (Pk).
続いて、判定部54は、部品情報M2に基づいて、上記の2つの部品92の種類(Pc,Pk)の類似度を算出し、予め設定されている基準値と比較する。判定部54は、類似度の判定結果(H/L)を判定情報D3に記録する。判定部54は、類似度が基準値以上である場合に(S22:Yes)、吸着ノズル34に部品92が付着した状態かの付着判定を実行する(S23)。これにより、例えば部品カメラ41の撮像により取得された画像データM3を画像処理して、対象の吸着ノズル34に廃棄した部品92が付着しているかが判定される。
Subsequently, the determination unit 54 calculates the similarity between the above two types of parts 92 (Pc, Pk) based on the part information M2, and compares them with the preset reference values. The determination unit 54 records the determination result (H / L) of the similarity in the determination information D3. When the similarity is equal to or higher than the reference value (S22: Yes), the determination unit 54 executes an adhesion determination as to whether or not the component 92 is attached to the suction nozzle 34 (S23). Thereby, for example, the image data M3 acquired by the imaging of the component camera 41 is image-processed, and it is determined whether or not the discarded component 92 is attached to the target suction nozzle 34.
S23において、対象の吸着ノズル34に廃棄した部品92が付着していると判定された場合に(S24:No)、制御装置50は、エラー処理を実行する(S41)。具体的には、制御装置50は、実行している装着処理を中断し、通知部55により作業者へ異常を通知させる。これにより、作業者による対象の吸着ノズル34の状態確認や、不要な部品92の除去作業などのメンテナンスが行われ、その後に装着処理が再開される。
In S23, when it is determined that the discarded component 92 is attached to the target suction nozzle 34 (S24: No), the control device 50 executes error processing (S41). Specifically, the control device 50 interrupts the mounting process being executed, and the notification unit 55 notifies the operator of the abnormality. As a result, maintenance such as confirmation of the state of the target suction nozzle 34 by the operator and removal work of unnecessary parts 92 is performed, and then the mounting process is restarted.
一方で、S23において、対象の吸着ノズル34に廃棄した部品92が付着していないと判定された場合(S24:Yes)、または保持状態の認識処理(S13)において不適部品が検出されなかった場合に(S15:No)、制御装置50は、今回のPPサイクルを終了する。また、判定部54は、類似度が基準値未満である場合に(S22:No)、付着判定(S23)を省略する。
On the other hand, in S23, when it is determined that the discarded component 92 is not attached to the target suction nozzle 34 (S24: Yes), or when an inappropriate component is not detected in the holding state recognition process (S13). (S15: No), the control device 50 ends the PP cycle this time. Further, the determination unit 54 omits the adhesion determination (S23) when the similarity is less than the reference value (S22: No).
装着制御部53は、制御プログラムM1に基づいて、全てのPPサイクルが終了したか否かを判定する(S16)。全てのPPサイクルが終了していない場合には(S16:No)、装着制御部53は、PPサイクル(S12-S14)、および必要に応じて廃棄処理(S21-S24)を繰り返し実行する。全てのPPサイクルが終了した場合に(S16:Yes)、制御装置50は、基板91の搬出処理を実行する(S17)。基板91の搬出処理において、基板搬送装置10は、位置決めされていた基板91をアンクランプするとともに、部品装着機1の機外に基板91を搬出する。
The mounting control unit 53 determines whether or not all PP cycles have been completed based on the control program M1 (S16). If all the PP cycles have not been completed (S16: No), the mounting control unit 53 repeatedly executes the PP cycle (S12-S14) and, if necessary, the disposal process (S21-S24). When all the PP cycles are completed (S16: Yes), the control device 50 executes the unloading process of the substrate 91 (S17). In the unloading process of the substrate 91, the substrate transport device 10 unclamps the positioned substrate 91 and unloads the substrate 91 out of the component mounting machine 1.
3-2.状態認識部52による保持状態の認識処理
状態認識部52による保持状態の認識処理について図8を参照して説明する。先ず、状態認識部52は、画像データM3を取得する(S31)。この画像データM3は、例えば部品カメラ41の撮像により取得されたものであり、複数の吸着ノズル34によりそれぞれ保持された部品92を含んでいる。状態認識部52は、例えば部品92のみが白色となり、それ以外が黒色となるように二値化などの画像処理を実行する(S32)。 3-2. The holding state recognition process by thestate recognition unit 52 The holding state recognition process by the state recognition unit 52 will be described with reference to FIG. First, the state recognition unit 52 acquires the image data M3 (S31). The image data M3 is acquired by, for example, imaging the component camera 41, and includes the component 92 held by the plurality of suction nozzles 34, respectively. The state recognition unit 52 executes image processing such as binarization so that, for example, only the component 92 becomes white and the other parts become black (S32).
状態認識部52による保持状態の認識処理について図8を参照して説明する。先ず、状態認識部52は、画像データM3を取得する(S31)。この画像データM3は、例えば部品カメラ41の撮像により取得されたものであり、複数の吸着ノズル34によりそれぞれ保持された部品92を含んでいる。状態認識部52は、例えば部品92のみが白色となり、それ以外が黒色となるように二値化などの画像処理を実行する(S32)。 3-2. The holding state recognition process by the
状態認識部52は、上記の画像処理(S32)によって、部品92が保持されているか否か、部品92が実行予定の装着動作に適するか否か、装着ヘッド33の基準位置に対する各部品92の位置や角度を保持状態として認識する。状態認識部52は、複数の部品92のうち装着動作に適さない不適部品が含まれている場合に(S33:No)、その不適部品を保持する吸着ノズル34が前回のPPサイクルにおいて廃棄動作の対象であった部品92を保持していたか否かを判定する(S34)。
The state recognition unit 52 determines whether or not the component 92 is held by the above image processing (S32), whether or not the component 92 is suitable for the mounting operation to be executed, and whether or not the component 92 is suitable for the mounting operation to be executed. Recognize the position and angle as the holding state. When the state recognition unit 52 includes an unsuitable component that is not suitable for mounting operation among the plurality of components 92 (S33: No), the suction nozzle 34 that holds the unsuitable component is discarded in the previous PP cycle. It is determined whether or not the target component 92 is held (S34).
不適部品を保持する吸着ノズル34が前回のPPサイクルにおいて廃棄動作の対象であった部品92を保持していた場合に(S34:Yes)、制御装置50は、エラー処理を実行する(S42)。これは、前回のPPサイクルにおいて廃棄動作(S21)の実行後に付着判定(S23)が省略され、廃棄を試行された部品92が吸着ノズル34に付着した状態にあることを意味する。そして、上記の状態が今回のPPサイクルの保持状態の認識処理において検出されたことになる。なお、エラー処理(S42)は、先述のエラー処理(S41)と同様であるため、説明を省略する。
When the suction nozzle 34 holding the inappropriate part holds the part 92 that was the target of the disposal operation in the previous PP cycle (S34: Yes), the control device 50 executes the error processing (S42). This means that the adhesion determination (S23) is omitted after the disposal operation (S21) is executed in the previous PP cycle, and the component 92 for which disposal is attempted is in a state of being attached to the suction nozzle 34. Then, the above state is detected in the recognition process of the holding state of the PP cycle this time. Since the error processing (S42) is the same as the error processing (S41) described above, the description thereof will be omitted.
一方で、不適部品を保持する吸着ノズル34が前回のPPサイクルにおいて廃棄動作の対象であった部品92を保持していなかった場合に(S34:No)、状態認識部52は、装着適否の判定結果を判定情報D2に記録する。具体的には、状態認識部52は、採取した部品92が不適部品であるとして装着適否の判定情報D2に「NG」を記録する。これにより、対応する装着動作は、今回のPPサイクルにおいてスキップするように設定される。
On the other hand, when the suction nozzle 34 that holds the unsuitable part does not hold the part 92 that was the target of the disposal operation in the previous PP cycle (S34: No), the state recognition unit 52 determines whether or not the mounting is appropriate. The result is recorded in the determination information D2. Specifically, the state recognition unit 52 records "NG" in the mounting suitability determination information D2, assuming that the collected component 92 is an unsuitable component. As a result, the corresponding mounting operation is set to be skipped in this PP cycle.
また、スキップの理由が不適部品であることであれば、廃棄動作(S21)が実行されることになる。一方で、部品92が保持されなかったことがスキップの理由であれば、廃棄動作(S21)は省略される。判定情報D2の記録(S35)を終了した後に、または複数の部品92のうち装着動作に適さない不適部品が含まれていない場合に(S33:Yes)、状態認識部52は、今回のPPサイクルを継続可能として、保持状態の認識処理を終了する。
If the reason for skipping is an inappropriate part, the disposal operation (S21) will be executed. On the other hand, if the reason for skipping is that the component 92 is not held, the disposal operation (S21) is omitted. After the recording of the determination information D2 (S35) is completed, or when a plurality of parts 92 that are not suitable for the mounting operation are not included (S33: Yes), the state recognition unit 52 performs the PP cycle this time. Is enabled to continue, and the process of recognizing the holding state is terminated.
4.実施形態の構成による効果
このような構成によると、部品装着機1は、廃棄動作などにより開放を試行された部品92の外観形状と、次回の装着動作に係る部品92の外観形状との類似度を条件として、付着判定(S23)を実行するか省略するかを切り換える(S22)。これにより、省略可能な付着判定(S23)が省略されるので、生産性の低下を抑制することができる。 4. Effect of the configuration of the embodiment According to such a configuration, thecomponent mounting machine 1 has a degree of similarity between the external shape of the component 92 that has been attempted to be opened by a disposal operation or the like and the external shape of the component 92 related to the next mounting operation. (S22), it is switched whether to execute or omit the adhesion determination (S23) on the condition of. As a result, the omissible adhesion determination (S23) is omitted, so that a decrease in productivity can be suppressed.

また、付着判定(S23)が所定の条件下において省略され、仮に吸着ノズル34に廃棄を試行された部品92が付着していたとしても、次回のPPサイクルの保持状態の認識処理(S13)において不適部品として検出される。これにより、廃棄部品が次回のPPサイクルにおいて基板91に装着されることが防止される。
Further, even if the adhesion determination (S23) is omitted under a predetermined condition and the component 92 that has been attempted to be discarded is attached to the suction nozzle 34, in the next PP cycle holding state recognition process (S13). Detected as an inappropriate part. This prevents the discarded parts from being mounted on the substrate 91 in the next PP cycle.
5.実施形態の変形態様
実施形態において、付着判定(S23)は、廃棄動作(S21)の実行後に、対象の吸着ノズル34に廃棄によって開放を試行された部品92が付着していないかを判定するために実行されるものとした。この他に、付着判定(S23)は、保持部材(吸着ノズル34)が部品92の開放を試行した後であれば、種々のタイミングで実行され得る。 5. Modification of Embodiment In the embodiment, the adhesion determination (S23) is for determining whether or not thecomponent 92 that has been attempted to be opened by disposal is attached to the target suction nozzle 34 after the disposal operation (S21) is executed. It was supposed to be executed. In addition to this, the adhesion determination (S23) can be executed at various timings as long as the holding member (suction nozzle 34) attempts to open the component 92.

例えば、制御装置50は、1回または複数回の装着動作の実行後に、対象の吸着ノズル34から部品92が適正に開放されたか否かを確認するために付着判定を実行してもよい。上記のようなタイミングで実行され得る付着判定について、実施形態において例示したように、所定の条件下において付着判定を実行するか省略するかを切り換える構成を適用することができる。これにより、実施形態と同様の効果を奏する。
For example, the control device 50 may execute the adhesion determination in order to confirm whether or not the component 92 is properly released from the target suction nozzle 34 after executing the mounting operation once or a plurality of times. As for the adhesion determination that can be executed at the above timing, as illustrated in the embodiment, it is possible to apply a configuration that switches whether the adhesion determination is executed or omitted under a predetermined condition. As a result, the same effect as that of the embodiment is obtained.
