The monitoring device has a measurement transducer which detects a force occurring during the machining with the tool (13) and acting on a tool spindle (1) and delivers a corresponding signal to a signal-processing unit (9). The measurement transducer is a displacement sensor (6) working in a contactless manner, and located opposite the displacement sensor (6) at a distance apart is at least one reference surface (4). The displacement sensor (6) measures the respective change in distance relative to the reference surface (4) during the machining. The tool (13) can be reliably monitored by the device with regard to wear and/or fracture. The monitoring device is simple to assemble and is suitable for use in multi-spindle heads. <IMAGE> |
