Abstract
A device for centering a longitudinal workpiece fixed on a spindle includes a support body linearly displaced along a support body axis. The support body and support body axis are aligned substantially parallel to an axis of rotation of the spindle. A first support element movably arranged on the body supports the workpiece or a workpiece receiving part, and a second support element movably arranged on the body supports the workpiece or a workpiece receiving part. The first support element can be linearly displaced in a first direction and is rotatably arranged about a first axis of rotation on the support body and the second support element can be linearly displaced in a second direction different from the first direction and is rotatably arranged about a second axis of rotation on the support body.
