Abstract: A method and device for mounting a plug in a hollow shaft is disclosed. The device includes a holding device for holding the plug to be mounted and a joining device for sliding the hollow shaft onto the plug held in the holding device. The holding device is radially adjustable relative to an axis of the hollow shaft to compensate for an axial offset between the axis of the hollow shaft and an axis of the plug. The joining device can be inclined to compensate for an inclined position of the axis of the hollow shaft and the axis of the plug. The method includes pressing the joining device onto the hollow shaft from above and adjusting the holding device with the plug radially to the hollow shaft if the axial offset is present, and inclining the joining device if the inclined position is present.

Abstract: A device for positioning a shaft relative to a functional element including at least one hub for the shaft. The device may include a tailstock for axially aligning the shaft with respect to the at least one hub of the functional element. The tailstock may include a radially adjustable centring cone for the shaft. The tailstock may have an outer diameter that is smaller than an inner diameter of the at least one hub.
