A reading device, system, storage medium and method for capturing computer-readable codes of a medical product or packaging. The method includes: capturing an image of the product or packaging, extracting first and second computer-readable code, interpreting code data, retrieving a product-ID and further product information from the code data, determining if relevant information is included in the information of the captured code and/or a linked database, selecting the second code as a relevant code if retrieved information of the first code is fully included in the retrieved information of the second code, or selecting the first and second codes as the relevant code if each code includes relevant information, transmitting a code marker for each code to a displaying device, and displaying an overlay image with the captured image and a marking of the code to provide an improved overview of the computer-readable codes to the user.

A method and a device for position-dependent compliance compensation in a machine tool is disclosed. The compliance of the machine tool is derived at a position of a tool of the machine tool from machine data stored in memory, a machining force acting on the tool during a machining process at this position is determined, and at least one machining parameter that has an influence on the machining process is derived at this position in dependence on the derived compliance and the machining force so as to counteract a displacement of the tool with respect to a desired position caused by the compliance of the machine tool and the machining force. This optimizes the machining time and/or contour fidelity when machining a workpiece with a machine tool.
