Abstract: An apparatus and a method are for securing at least one measuring device to an object. The measuring device is configured for monitoring the object and is provided with a penetrating element for perforating a sheet forming part of the object. The apparatus has a body having a housing for holding the measuring device and an assembling device for moving the measuring device with respect to the housing. The assembling device has an engagement means movable between a retracted, passive position, and an extended, active position for engaging the measuring device to urge the penetrating element of the measuring device through the sheet of the object to secure the measuring device to the object. A control device is for operating the assembling device.
