ELECTRONIC COMPONENT MOUNTER AND MOUNTING METHOD
First Claim
1. A component height measurement method applied to a mounter equipped with a transfer head having a component-sucking-and-holding nozzle, for transferring a component and mounting the component onto a board, said method comprising:
- lowering the component to within a high-accuracy range of a sensor for measuring a height of the component; and
measuring the height of the component using the sensor.

Abstract
It is an object to provide a method by which the height of an electronic component sucked and held by a nozzle can be detected with high accuracy and high efficiency.
This method is a component height measurement method applied to a mounter (100) equipped with a transfer head (8) having a component-sucking-and-holding nozzle (21), for transferring a component P and mounting the component P onto a board (3), and includes: lowering the component P to within the high-accuracy range of a first line sensor (13) for measuring the height of the component P; and measuring the height of the component P using the first line sensor (13).
