COMPONENT MOUNTING MACHINE AND TRANSFER MATERIAL TRANSFER METHOD

Transfer material supply units (13 and 14) for supplying a transfer material to a transfer table (80) and spreading the transfer material in a film shape on the transfer table is set in a free space of a feeder setting section (12) of a component mounting machine (10), and transfer pins (24 and 25) for transferring the transfer material on the transfer table to a mounting surface (15a) of a three-dimensional board (15) are held by at least one mounting head of the component mounting machine to be exchangeable with a suction nozzle (23) for picking up a circuit component. The lower end of the transfer pin is immersed in the transfer material on the transfer table to attach the transfer material to the lower end of the transfer pin by moving the mounting head holding the transfer pin to a position above the transfer table to lower and raise the transfer pin, and then the transfer material attached to the lower end of the transfer pin is transferred to the mounting surface of the three-dimensional board by moving the mounting head above the mounting surface of the three-dimensional board to lower and raise the transfer pin.
