Workpiece classification discharge system and workpiece classification discharge method

Abstract

To provide a workpiece sorting and discharging system capable of improving productivity and realizing downsizing of the entire device. The workpiece sorting and discharging system (50) includes: a transfer table (2) formed with a workpiece storage hole (3) for accommodating the workpiece (W), a workpiece measuring unit (7) for measuring the workpiece (W); ) is placed outward and has a discharge module (81) with a plurality of openings (8) opening toward the workpiece storage hole (3) side. Each opening (8x) of the discharge module (81) is provided corresponding to a plurality of classifications of workpieces W, and each opening (8x) is connected to a corresponding workpiece storage box (115) via discharge pipes (85, 86). The discharge module (81) is formed by stacking a plurality of basic levels (81A) having a plurality of openings (8x) arranged in a plurality of rows in multiple layers. Based on the measurement result from the workpiece measurement unit (7), the control unit (9) rotates the transfer table (2) and moves the discharge module (81) in the vertical direction to remove the workpiece (W) in the workpiece storage hole (3). ) to the opening (8x) of the corresponding classification.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a workpiece sorting and discharging system and a workpiece sorting and discharging method for sorting and discharging workpieces such as electronic components, and more particularly, to a workpiece sorting and discharging system and a workpiece sorting and discharging method capable of improving productivity and reducing the overall size of the device. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, there is known a workpiece sorting and discharging device that absorbs and holds workpieces such as chip electronic components in workpiece storage holes provided on the outer periphery of a transfer table, simultaneously measures electrical characteristics, and sorts the workpieces according to the measurement results of the workpieces. For a plurality of preset classifications, the workpieces are discharged into storage boxes corresponding to each classification through the discharge pipe. In such an apparatus, as the number...
