Abstract
A control device for controlling a machine tool which can be used to drive tools includes a memory for storing a movement limit value which is respectively assigned to the tools and is specific to the respective tool. A desired value generating unit generates desired values for controlling the movement of the tool. The desired values are limited by a limiting unit on the basis of the assigned movement limit value in such a manner that the movement limit value is not exceeded when moving the tool.
