    摘要: The invention relates to a method for determining the mass and the center of gravity location of a load (10) of a moving system (12), particularly of a machine tool (14), which comprises a support (20) that is for accommodating the load (10) and is able to rotate around a first axis (16) and a second axis (18) as well as electronically controlled drive units (22, 24) for rotating the support (20) around the first axis (16) and around the second axis (18), wherein



    a total moment of inertia and a holding torque with regard to the first axis (16) are determined in a loaded state;
    a total moment of inertia and a holding torque with regard to the second axis (18) are determined in the loaded state; and
    the mass and the center of gravity location of the load (10) relative to the support (20) are determined based on the total moments of inertia and the holding torques with regard to the first axis (16) and second axis (18).




    The invention also relates to a moving system (12), which is equipped to determine the mass and the center of gravity location of a load (10) according to such a method.

    摘要: A method for sensing a cutting-edge load in a motor-driven machine-tool unit having a stator unit and a rotor unit that is rotatable at least about an axis of rotation. The rotor unit includes a tool receiving unit that is adjustable along the axis of rotation and to which a clamping force can be applied, for fixing and clamping a releasably fixable tool shank of a tool. A tool head of the tool includes at least one individual cutting edge. A tool sensor is provided for sensing the load on the tool, the tool sensor being realized as an individual-cutting-edge sensor for sensing a cutting-edge load on the individual cutting edge.

    摘要: Proposed is a machine tool unit with a stator unit and a rotor unit which is rotatable about an axis of rotation, wherein the rotor unit comprises a spindle head with a tool-holding unit having a tool-clamping device, wherein a testing device is provided for testing the clamping state of the tool, the testing device having precisely one sensor head for sensory detection. To improve the precision, the sensor head is arranged at a fixed position on the stator unit in such a manner that it measures the distance to an end-side part of the spindle head rotating relative to the sensor head, wherein the testing device is designed to record a temporal/position-related sequence of at least two distance values and/or of at least two successive series of in each case at least two distance values, in order to determine an axial run-out error.
