Abstract: A receiving device for components. The receiving device is designed to be adjusted in a controlled manner relative to a deposit point at least partly along a first, second, and/or third axis by at least one linear drive and/or move a support guided by the receiving device along one of the first and/or second axes by a drive. The receiving device has a position sensor which is paired with a component deposit point in order to detect a component which has only been partly deposited in a pocket of the support at the component deposit point, where the position sensor is connected to the receiving device laterally of the support such that the position sensor is moved directly together with the receiving device.

Abstract: A reception device for moving components along a first axis, a second axis and a third axis and that is designed to rotate in a controlled manner relative to a deposit point, at least partly about the third axis containing the deposit point, by means of a rotary drive and/or to be propelled in a controlled manner by means of at least one linear drive at least partly along one of the first, second or third axes, and/or to propel, in a controlled manner, a carrier guided by the reception device, along one of the first and/or second axes.

Abstract: A component-handling device for removing components from a structured component supply and for storing the removed components at a reception device, where the reception device is newly adjusted after being initially put into operation after the replacement of device components or after maintenance work, in order to comply with the precision requirements when handling the components. The component-handling device has a self-adjustment device which permits it to adjust the device efficiently in terms of time and with high precision without manual intervention by an operator. The self-adjustment device is composed of a multiplicity of optical sensors and a controller. Adaptation of the measurement results acquired by means of the optical sensors using position sensors and property sensors installed originally for component inspection during fabrication gives rise to a high degree of process reliability and at the same time permits device components to be inspected for damage.
