Abstract
Placement head and placement system for a placement apparatus for placing components in a placement plane, at least one placement head being provided with at least one gripper for picking up and/or putting down the components. The gripper is fitted in an edge region of the placement head, with the result that, in the case of a projection of the placement head onto the placement plane, the image of the gripper situated in the placement position essentially does not project from the image of the placement head. According to the invention, simultaneous independent placement using a plurality of placement heads is possible without the risk of a collision of the placement heads.
