A dispensing device for a multi component cartridge includes a housing in which a reception element for receiving a cartridge end of the multicomponent cartridge is arranged. The cartridge end is located at the inlet side of a first and second storage container filled with a filling mass and respectively sealed in a fluid tight manner at the cartridge end by a respective piston. A plunger arrangement and a drive arrangement for moving the plunger arrangement are arranged in the housing. A movement of the plunger arrangement in a dispensing direction can be carried out by the drive arrangement for dispensing the filling mass from the storage containers of the multicomponent cartridge. The reception element has an axis of rotation which is substantially arranged in parallel to the dispensing direction. The cartridge end pushed into the reception element can be transferred from an assembly position into a dispensing position by a rotation about the axis of rotation.
