Patent attributes
A flip-chip bonding apparatus for mounting semiconductor chips on a circuit board is provided with: a mounting head, to which a plurality of mounting nozzles for moving, in the vertical direction, mounting tools for vacuum-sucking the semiconductor chips are attached by being aligned in the Y direction, said mounting head moving in the Y direction; and an electronic component handling unit, that moves in the X direction perpendicular to the Y direction, picks up the semiconductor chips such that the semiconductor chips are aligned in the X direction, inverts the semiconductor chips, and at the same time, changes the alignment direction of the semiconductor chips from the X direction to the Y direction. Consequently, in the electronic component mounting apparatus, installation area can be saved and bonding speed can be increased with the simple configuration.
