A component handling device for removing components from a structured component supply and for depositing them at a receiving device, comprising: a first turning device having a plurality of pick-up elements which is configured to: receive a component from the structured component supply at a dispensing point, and turn the received component about its longitudinal or transverse axis (LA, QA) by a first predetermined angle and convey it to a transfer point; a second turning device having a plurality of pick-up elements which is configured to: receive the component from a pick-up element of the first turning device at the transfer point (ÜS), turn the received component about its longitudinal or transverse axis (LA, QA) by a second predetermined angle and convey it to a deposit point; and position and property sensors (K1,..., K5) associated with the first and second turning devices (130, 150) which are configured to detect: position data of the first and second turning devices (130, 150), position data of components located at the pick-up elements (132, 152), and/or properties of components located at the pick-up elements (132, 152) of the first and second turning devices (130, 150) and provide them to a control unit, wherein the control unit is configured to: rotate the first turning device in a controlled manner about a first axis (x-axis) by means of a first rotary drive; move the first turning device in a controlled manner along the first axis (x-axis) by means of a first linear drive; rotate the second turning device in a controlled manner about a second axis (y-axis) that is not collinear to the first axis (x-axis) by means of a second rotary drive; and move the second turning device in a controlled manner along the second axis (y-axis) by means of a second linear drive. a first turning device having a plurality of pick-up elements which is configured to: receive a component from the structured component supply at a dispensing point, and turn the received component about its longitudinal or transverse axis (LA, QA) by a first predetermined angle and convey it to a transfer point; receive a component from the structured component supply at a dispensing point, and turn the received component about its longitudinal or transverse axis (LA, QA) by a first predetermined angle and convey it to a transfer point; a second turning device having a plurality of pick-up elements which is configured to: receive the component from a pick-up element of the first turning device at the transfer point (ÜS), turn the received component about its longitudinal or transverse axis (LA, QA) by a second predetermined angle and convey it to a deposit point; and receive the component from a pick-up element of the first turning device at the transfer point (ÜS), turn the received component about its longitudinal or transverse axis (LA, QA) by a second predetermined angle and convey it to a deposit point; and position and property sensors (K1,..., K5) associated with the first and second turning devices (130, 150) which are configured to detect: position data of the first and second turning devices (130, 150), position data of components located at the pick-up elements (132, 152), and/or properties of components located at the pick-up elements (132, 152) of the first and second turning devices (130, 150) and provide them to a control unit, wherein position data of the first and second turning devices (130, 150), position data of components located at the pick-up elements (132, 152), and/or properties of components located at the pick-up elements (132, 152) of the first and second turning devices (130, 150) and provide them to a control unit, wherein the control unit is configured to: rotate the first turning device in a controlled manner about a first axis (x-axis) by means of a first rotary drive; move the first turning device in a controlled manner along the first axis (x-axis) by means of a first linear drive; rotate the second turning device in a controlled manner about a second axis (y-axis) that is not collinear to the first axis (x-axis) by means of a second rotary drive; and move the second turning device in a controlled manner along the second axis (y-axis) by means of a second linear drive. rotate the first turning device in a controlled manner about a first axis (x-axis) by means of a first rotary drive; move the first turning device in a controlled manner along the first axis (x-axis) by means of a first linear drive; rotate the second turning device in a controlled manner about a second axis (y-axis) that is not collinear to the first axis (x-axis) by means of a second rotary drive; and move the second turning device in a controlled manner along the second axis (y-axis) by means of a second linear drive.
