A mounting device and a mounting method is provided with which, after lowering a mounting head holding a chip component in a direction perpendicular to a substrate to bring the chip component into close contact with the substrate subsequent to positioning the chip component and the substrate, a control unit causes a recognition mechanism to start a parallel recognition operation of a chip recognition mark and a substrate recognition mark and recognize the chip recognition mark and the substrate recognition mark through the mounting head in a mounted state in which the chip component is in close contact with the substrate, and calculates mounting position accuracy of the chip component and the substrate.
