Abstract
The invention relates to a tool having a tool element which rotates in operation with at least one geometrically defined blade, in particular a material cutting tool element. The tool element is subject to an operating parameter in the operating condition. A measuring device is provided for determination and conversion of the operation parameter into a measured signal. A first measuring device cooperates with a first tool element in the operating condition such that essentially only a first operating parameter for the first tool element may be recorded by the first measuring device.
