Abstract
The invention proposes a method for clamping a pipe with a hose or a pipe with the aid of a compression sleeve, in which the influence of dimensional tolerances of the components on the quality of the compressed connection is significantly reduced. In the method according to the invention, the pressing force between a compression tool and the compression sleeve as well as the advancing distance of the compression tool are determined and evaluated.
