Abstract

A joining tool unit including a hold-down device with a movable tool and a tool counter element. The hold-down device together with the movable tool and the tool counter element are provided opposite each other. A workpiece can be positioned between the hold-down device and the tool counter element in the arranged state. The movable tool and the tool counter element interact in order to form a joint connection. A light-guiding system is formed on the hold-down device, to conduct a light beam in the direction of a joint location of the workpiece when the workpiece is arranged on the joining tool unit. A flow channel for a fluid is defined along a section of the light beam up to a workpiece-side end of the hold-down device.
