Abstract
A hollow-cylindrical preloading cartridge of an installation tool of a wire thread insert has a mandrel channel extending within the preloading cartridge, in which an assembly mandrel with an installation end and a drive end is guided in an inner mandrel guiding thread. The cartridge has an outer wall which encompasses the mandrel channel at least partly with a radial positioning window adjacent to a first axial end of the preloading cartridge facing away from the drive end of the assembly mandrel, through which a wire thread insert is positionable on the assembly mandrel. At least one first tactile detection unit projects beyond a ring-like front side of the cartridge on the first axial end and is offsetable parallel to a longitudinal axis of the cartridge, wherein an axial offset of the at least one tactile detection unit can be detected with a first detection sensor of the cartridge.
