Abstract: In a method for automated positioning of a blank in a processing machine provided with a housing and a spindle unit with an electric motor, a control unit for control and electrical supply of the processing machine, a computer producing processing programs for manufacturing workpieces, a workpiece holder, and an image recording unit that optically records image data of a blank received in the workpiece holder, a blank is fixed in the processing machine and the image recording unit produces an image of the blank. A division of the blank into an already processed region and into an unprocessed region based on the image data of the image is performed. A workpiece geometry to be produced is assigned to the unprocessed region of the blank, and a milling operation is performed on the unprocessed region. In a variant of the method, the image recording unit is separate from the processing unit.

Abstract: A packaging container for an elongate object has a base and a protective sleeve to be pushed in a direction of a longitudinal axis of the protective sleeve onto the base. The protective sleeve can be secured at the base. The base has a receptacle for an end of an elongate object and the protective sleeve covers an elongate object received in the receptacle. The packaging container has a primary part of a first external coupling device and the primary part is detachably connectable to a secondary part of a second external coupling device that is provided on a further packaging container.
