Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A component mounting management apparatus having a display. A timing chart indicating the execution history of the component mounting operation is displayed on the display. In this timing chart, a plurality of marks corresponding to a plurality of boards, respectively, are arranged along the time axis. Each of the marks is disposed at a position on the time axis in accordance with the execution timing of the component mounting operation on the board corresponding to the mark and has a width depending on the operation time needed to perform the component mounting operation on the board corresponding to the mark along the time axis. That is, each of the plurality of marks arranged along the time axis in the timing chart indicates the execution timing and the operation time of the component mounting operation on the corresponding board.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A component mounting management apparatus, comprising: a display; and a controller configured to control displaying of a chart on the display, the chart indicating an execution history of a predetermined operation in a component mounting system which produces a component-mounted board by performing the predetermined operation on a board at an operation position while sequentially transferring a plurality of boards to the operation position, wherein in the chart, by disposing a mark corresponding to the board at a position on a time axis in accordance with an execution timing of the predetermined operation on the board corresponding to the mark, a plurality of marks corresponding to the plurality of boards are arranged along the time axis, each of the plurality of marks has a width, along the time axis, depending on an operation time needed to perform the predetermined operation on the corresponding board, and the controller is configured to change a color of the mark depending on an excess amount so that the plurality of marks each have a color depending on an excess amount of the operation time on the corresponding board with respect to a reference time. 2. The component mounting management apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising: a setting input configured to receive a setting operation of a manager who sets a correspondence between the excess amount and the color of the mark, wherein the controller is configured to change the color of the mark depending on the excess amount in accordance with the correspondence. 3. The component mounting management apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the controller is configured to control displaying of a number of boards, among the plurality of boards, each whose operation time exceeds the reference time, an excess time of each board whose operation time exceeds the reference time, or the total of the excess times of all the boards each whose operation time exceeds the reference time, on the display. 4. The component mounting management apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the controller is configured to control displaying of information pertaining to the board, for each color of the corresponding mark, in a list format on the display. 5. The component mounting management apparatus according to claim 2 , further comprising: a specification input configured to receive a specification operation of specifying one mark out of the plurality of marks, wherein the controller is configured to control displaying of information in accordance with the one mark specified by the specification operation, on the display. 6. The component mounting management apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the component mounting system comprises a plurality of equipments each having the operation position, and the controller is configured to control displaying of information on the board on which the predetermined operation is performed at the operation position of the equipment, for each equipment, in a list format on the display. 7. The component mounting management apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to control displaying of a number of boards, among the plurality of boards, each whose operation time exceeds the reference time, an excess time of each board whose operation time exceeds the reference time, or the total of the excess times of all the boards each whose operation time exceeds the reference time, on the display. 8. The component mounting management apparatus according to claim 7 , further comprising: a specification input configured to receive a specification operation of specifying one mark out of the plurality of marks, wherein the controller is configured to control displaying of information in accordance with the one mark specified by the specification operation, on the display. 9. The component mounting management apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the component mounting system comprises a plurality of equipments each having the operation position, and the controller is configured to control displaying of information on the board on which the predetermined operation is performed at the operation position of the equipment, for each equipment, in a list format on the display. 10. The component mounting management apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to control displaying of information pertaining to the board, for each color of the corresponding mark, in a list format on the display. 11. The component mounting management apparatus according to claim 10 , further comprising: a specification input configured to receive a specification operation of specifying one mark out of the plurality of marks, wherein the controller is configured to control displaying of information in accordance with the one mark specified by the specification operation, on the display. 12. The component mounting management apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising: a specification input configured to receive a specification operation of specifying one mark out of the plurality of marks, wherein the controller is configured to control displaying of information in accordance with the one mark specified by the specification operation, on the display. 13. The component mounting management apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the controller is configured to control displaying of information on the board corresponding to the one mark, on the display. 14. The component mounting management apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the controller is configured to control displaying of a phenomenon occurring during the operation time for the board corresponding to the one mark and time needed for the phenomenon, on the display. 15. The component mounting management apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the controller is configured to control displaying of an error occurring during the operation time for the board corresponding to the one mark, on the display. 16. The component mounting management apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the component mounting system comprises a plurality of equipments each having the operation position, and the controller is configured to control displaying of information on the board on which the predetermined operation is performed at the operation position of the equipment, for each equipment, in a list format on the display. 17. A component mounting management method, comprising: displaying a chart, on a display, which indicates an execution history of a predetermined operation in a component mounting system which produces a component-mounted board by performing the predetermined operation on a board at an operation position while sequentially transferring a plurality of boards to the operation position, wherein in the chart, by disposing a mark corresponding to the board at a position on a time axis in accordance with an execution timing of the predetermined operation on the board corresponding to the mark, a plurality of marks corresponding to the plurality of boards are arranged along the time axis, and each of the plurality of marks has a width, along the time axis, depending on an operation time needed to perform the predetermined operation on the corresponding board; and changing a color of the mark depending on an excess amount so that the plurality of marks each have a color depending on an excess amount of the operation time on the corresponding board with respect to a reference time. 18. A non-transitory machine-readable storage mediu
