- providing a first component;
placing the first component in a space, where an exact position of the first component in the space need not be known or is unknown;
determining the exact position of the first component in the space via a position recognition device that generates position data corresponding to a position of the first component;
using the determined position data, attaching or producing a first fixing element as part of the first component in a specified position relative to the first component via an electronically controlled device; and

Abstract
A method for connecting components includes the acts of providing a first component, fixing the first component in a space, where the exact position of the first component in a space does not have to be known or is unknown, determining the exact position of the first component in a space by a position recognition device, which generates the position data that correspond to the position of the first component, attaching or producing at least one first fixing element on the first component by an electronically controlled device, which attaches or produces the at least one first fixing element in a specified position relative to the first component using the determined position data, and fixing a second component on the first component, where a second fixing element, which is provided on the second component, forms a detachable connection with the first fixing element.
