The device serves to place protective needle caps (1) onto medical syringes (2), in particular on syringes (2) with a glued-in cannula (5). It consists of a holding element (3) for one or more syringes (2) as well as a feeding element (4) for the protective needle caps (1), the holding element (3) and the feeding element (4) for placing the protective needle caps (1) being adjustable in relation to each other. For each protective needle cap (1) the feeding element (4) has a guide sleeve (7) whose diameter is greater than th e maximum outside diameter of the protective needle cap (1). At least one compressed a ir inlet (8) through which air can be blown into the ring-shaped space (9) between the wa ll of the guide sleeve (7) and the surface area of the protective needle cap (1) discharges into the guide sleeve (7). A closing device (10) is located between the holding eleme nt (3) and the guide sleeve (7) (which is open at the bottom) which can be opened in order to place a protective needle cap (1).
