A device and appertaining method for picking up devices in a component placement device permits even very small components and even a first component of a new belt to be picked up by scanning the structural features of the belt directly in the proximity of the components. The positional tolerances can be disregarded so that even the first component of a new belt can be reliably detected by the pick-up tool.

Method for determining pick-up positions of electronic components

An mounting apparatus for mounting an electrical component onto a substrate of an electrical assembly. The mounting apparatus employs a compensating element to facilitate the component mounting operation. The compensating element includes a spring member and a damping member. The spring member applies an optimal contact pressure for securely mounting said component without damaging the component. The damping element acts to damp the spring member during so as to effectively reduce a spring force that acts on the mounting apparatus during the component delivery stage.
