The invention discloses a distributing device for electronic components and a control method of the distributing device. The problems that in the prior art, the manual segmentation efficiency is low, mistakes are prone to occurring, the shearing technology is limited by skills, the sizes are all different, and storage and welding are not facilitated are mainly solved. The device comprises a device cabinet, material gun shelves, an electrical device compartment, a touch screen, a three-color indicator lamp and distributing guns, wherein the material gun shelves are arranged on the right side of the device cabinet in parallel, the electrical device compartment is pressed at the tops of the material gun shelves, the left side edge of the electrical device compartment is fixed to the side edge of the device cabinet, the touch screen is inserted into the upper edge of the front portion of the device cabinet, the three-color indicator lamp is installed at the top of the device cabinet, and the two rows of distributing guns are inserted into the material gun shelves and are evenly distributed. Two rows of square holes used for allowing the distributing guns to be inserted into are formed in the front portions of the material gun shelves. By adoption of the scheme, the distributing device has the advantages that segmentation is efficient, operation is convenient and rapid, counting is accurate, segmentation is even, and the production cost is reduced, and the distributing device has pretty high practical value and popularization value in the field of distributing of the electronic components.
