Abstract
The invention relates to a device for delivering electronic components, in particular SMD components, to an insertion unit. The electronic components are kept ready in the form of a bar unit. A control unit interacts with an actuating unit in each case arranged on delivery rails of a delivery unit, so that the assignment of the bar unit to a predefined delivery rail is made possible, by the actuating unit being brought into a locked position in which the delivery rail is blocked or into an unlocked position in which the delivery rail is released.

A device for delivering electronic components, in particular SMD components formed in a bar unit, to an insertion unit, said device comprising:
- a delivery unit with delivery rails;
- actuating units, each assigned to one of the delivery rails;
- and
- a control unit, coupled to said actuating units, to process delivery control data bringing a respective actuating unit into one of a locked Position in which a corresponding delivery rail is blocked and an unlocked position in which the corresponding delivery rail is released, to acquire and process component-related data relating to the bar unit.
