The invention provides a mounting head control system. The mounting head control system consists of a mounting head controller, an industrial mainboard, a Mark point camera, a Z axis moving module, a flight camera, a pneumatic module, an R axis motion module and an inductor module. The mounting head control system is characterized in that the Mark point camera, the Z axis moving module and the flight camera are connected to the industrial mainboard; the mounting head controller is connected to the pneumatic module, the R axis motion module and the inductor module; and the mounting head controller is connected to the industrial mainboard. The mounting head control system and method use a modularization idea and use a mounting head controller to be connected to the industrial mainboard, independently take charge for data processing of the pneumatic module, the R axis motion module and the inductor module, realize material absorbing and discharging of a mounting shaft, and member rotation in an R direction; the inductor is in charge of data collection of the pneumatic module and the R axis motion module and is in communication with the industrial mainboard through a CAN bus, which makes the whole system faster and more efficient. The mounting head control system and method effectively improve a material absorbing speed, reduce vacuum detection fluctuation and provide convenience to noise reduction processing of a detection signal of a simulation pressure sensor.
