Abstract
A spindle nose for a machine tool spindle. The spindle nose has a longitudinal axis and a receiving end at which a conical receiving area opens. The receiving area tapers conically away from the receiving end in the direction of the longitudinal axis for receiving a tool shaft cone. A circumferential wall surrounds the receiving area and forms a circumferential contact edge. The contact edge has flat contact surfaces on which contact surfaces of the tool shaft cone rest when the tool is clamped in the tool spindle. The spindle nose defines blind receiving bores leading perpendicularly to the flat contact surfaces and which end below the flat contact surfaces. The contact edge is divided into at least four segments with the same angle. At least one receiving bore is formed in each of the segments. A sensor is arranged in each receiving bore.
