The invention relates to a device for processing components 6, 7 for means of transport, in particular for processing sections for aircraft, comprising a handling system 1 that supports a holding frame 4, wherein the holding frame 4 comprises at least one pressure stamp 14, 32, 76 and/or at least one processing device 15 (which may also be denoted as a processing unit). By means of the handling system 1 the processing device 15 is freely positionable in space in relation to the components 6, 7. According to an exemplary embodiment of the invention, in the region of the holding frame 4 at least one connection element 19, 20, 34, 35, 60-63 is arranged. Due to the connection elements 19, 20, 34, 35, 60-63 an essentially closed force ring is established between the holding frame 4 and the components 6, 7 so that in an ideal case there is no longer any feedback of reaction forces to the handling system 1. The connection elements 19, 20, 34, 35, 60-63 are preferably suction devices 23, 24, 36, 37, 72-75 that are connectable to, and disconnectable from, a component surface 8. The connection elements 19, 20, 34, 35, 60-63, the processing device 15 and the pressure stamps 14, 32, 43 can be designed so as to be movable by means of actuators 17, 21, 22, 33, 38, 39, 68-71 and in addition can comprise integrated force sensors and/or distance measuring sensors. The device according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention makes it possible to quickly and precisely process even large-format components 6, 7 of limited rigidity, wherein the handling system 1 does not have to have a very high mechanical rigidity or strength. Furthermore, this device results in temporary stiffening of the components 6, 7 in the region to be processed so that deformations resulting from processing can be prevented.
