Abstract

A tool for processing a workpiece has a tool element for processing the workpiece and a control device. The control device is configured to evaluate a rotation angle, which is detected by a detection device, and with which the tool is arranged in space, after a processing operation of the workpiece has been carried out with the tool element. The control device is also configured to release the control of the tool in a manner dependent on whether the tool has been arranged in space with a predetermined rotation angle after the workpiece has been processed.
