Abstract
The present invention aims at closing a receptacle () provided with an opening () as tightly as possible while keeping low the amount of material required for a closure () used for this purpose. To this end, a tool () is suggested that closes the opening () of the receptacle () by means of the closure (). The tool () comprises a tool plate () configured such that it is adapted to be introduced into the opening () of the receptacle (). The tool further comprises at least one roll () that is arranged on the tool plate (). The at least one roll () is adapted to be deflected radially outwards from a starting position into a closing position and returns to its starting position, so that a radial force can be caused to act on a closure rim () of the closure () for a limited period of time, the closure rim () being arranged between the at least one roll () and the receptacle inner side ().
