To enable fine ball bumps to be quickly and surely formed.
Fine vibrations are applied to a case 6 where fine balls 5 are housed to make fine balls 5 start jumping, one of the jumping fine balls 5 is attracted by vacuum suction to a ball arranging board 1 where a ball suction hole is bored, fine balls 5a other than the fine ball 5 attracted to the ball suction hole 3 by vacuum suction are removed by vibrations of smaller amplitude, and then the ball arranging board 1 is moved over a ball bump forming target board 10 and aligned. Then, the fine ball 5 attracted to the ball suction hole 3 of the ball arranging board l is transferred onto the target board 10 at a bump forming position for the formation of a ball bump, thereby a fine ball bump of high bonding reliability can be easily formed through a simple device.
