1. Kinematic holding system for a placement head of a placement apparatus for mounting electronic or optical components on a substrate, comprising:

  • a placement head guide device comprising a placement head support for holding the placement head; and

    a placement head alignment device for adjusting the alignment of the placement head relative to the placement head support, wherein the placement head alignment device comprises a joint via which the placement head is supported in an inclination-adjustable way on the placement head support, and wherein the placement head alignment device comprises at least one length-variable holding member which is arranged at a distance from the joint between the placement head support and the placement head and which determines a pivoting position of the placement head relative to the placement head support and whose length is changeable during the placement operation depending on a deformation of the placement head guide device caused by a pressing force of the placement head against the substrate in such a way that an axis error of the placement head caused by the deformation of the placement head guide device is compensated.
