A method for producing separated strip-shaped laminate components comprising an electronic component embedded between two laminate layers of a ribbon-shaped material, in which method individual components are placed at defined intervals by means of a placement device onto a ribbon-shaped, lower first laminate layer moved in a conveying direction by means of a transport means, after which a ribbon-shaped, upper second laminate layer moved in the conveying direction is applied to the first laminate layer with embedding of the components so as to form a laminate tape, the individual strip-shaped laminate components being cut from the laminate tape, which is conveyed by means of the conveying means, by a cutting device comprising at least one movable cutting blade, which laminate components are picked up by means of a gripper device and transported away, the front end of the laminate tape being gripped by means of the gripper device in the region of a component and moved synchronously with the clocked movement of the transport means by a predetermined distance through the cutting device and positioned relative to the cutting blade, wherein the actual position of the component in the laminate component in relation to the conveying direction is detected by means of a measuring device connected downstream of the cutting device, and, when a deviation of the actual position from a defined target position is detected, the synchronous movement of the transport means and the gripper device is controlled in dependence on the detected deviation.
