Abstract
To set the length of a rotary tool (), to be thermally shrunk in place in a tool holder (), by means of an inductive heating device (), a setting device is provided with a positioning holder () for the rotary tool (), this positioning holder () being freely displaceable, but lockable, along a guide () and its tool push-in movement into the thermally expanded tool holder () being limited by a stop (). The rotary tool () bears with its tip () against a stop () of the positioning holder (). By means of a length-measuring device (), the stop () limiting the push-in movement can be limited to a position in which the tip () of the rotary tool () is at a predetermined distance from a reference surface () of a holder receptacle (), holding the tool holder () during the shrink-fitting operation, or from a corresponding reference surface of the tool holder ().
