A bonding head for mounting components comprises a shaft and a housing part in which the shaft is supported. The bearing of the shaft enables a rotation of the shaft about an axis and a displacement of the shaft in the longitudinal direction of the axis by a predetermined stroke. The bonding head further comprises an electric motor with a stator attached to the housing part and a rotor attached to the shaft, an encoder for measuring the rotational position of the shaft, and a force generator for applying a force to the shaft. The stator comprises coils to which currents can be applied, the rotor comprises a plurality of permanent magnets. A length of the permanent magnets measured in the longitudinal direction of the axis is shorter or longer than an effective length of the coils measured in the longitudinal direction of the axis by at least the stroke.
