Component placement device comprising a machine frame and at least two component pickup units, as well as a method for driving such a component placement device

摘要

A component placement device comprises a machine frame and at least two component pickup units which are movable relative to at least one subframe supported by a machine frame. Each component pickup unit is movable at least in a direction of movement. The component placement device comprises means for determining the magnitude of a counterforce to be exerted on the subframe substantially in the direction of movement, as well as at least one drive unit for exerting the counterforce determined by said means substantially in the direction of movement on the subframe for the purpose of at least partially counteracting the reactive force exerted on the subframe by at least one component pickup unit during movement of the component pickup unit in the direction of movement relative to the subframe.
