  • Publication number: 20250367740
    Abstract: A hand-held connector milling machine for producing a recess in a workpiece, the recess having a connector hole for receiving at least part of a connector. The connector milling machine includes: an electrical positioning device which is designed to move the milling tool along at least two positioning degrees of freedom, that are in particular linear, relative to the bearing structure; and an electronic control unit which is designed to control the electrical positioning device according to movement information so that the electrical positioning device displaces the milling tool in a movement sequence defined by the movement information along the at least two positioning degrees of freedom, while the milling tool performs a rotational removal movement in order to produce the recess which has the connector hole and a predefined recess geometry.

  • Publication number: 20240227231
    Abstract: A sawing apparatus can have a drive shaft that is rotatable about a central axis for rotationally driving a saw blade. The apparatus includes an electrical rotary feedthrough for the electrically conductive connection of the drive shaft to a connection assembly. The electrical rotary feedthrough includes a first component having a contact section that tapers in the direction of a second component and the shell surface of said contact section forms a first contact surface. The second component has a receiving channel that extends along the central axis and the side surface of the receiving channel forms a second contact surface. The first contact surface lies against the second contact surface in sections. The receiving channel and the tapering contact section has a clearance for ruling out a purely axial abutment of the components. In addition, an electrical rotary feedthrough for a sawing apparatus, is described.
