After the product undergoes the work such as the processing and assembly inspection in the process equipment 11 of the process 1, the carrier medium 8 receives the data of the work result from the main controller 11. The transport 8 processes the data received during the process 2 and determines the work content of the process 2. When the process 2 is reached, the data is transferred to the main controller 12, and the process facility 12 receives the work according to the data. Also, in the above explanation, the operation in the production line in which each process is connected has been shown,
It goes without saying that it is also possible to make the work stations of the respective steps independent and move between them by using means such as an automated guided vehicle. Further, if the configuration of the carrier medium of the present invention is applied to, for example, an individual component supply device in an electronic component mounting machine, the same information communication operation as described above is performed with the electronic component mounting machine body. It is also possible.
