Abstract
A workpiece holding device for holding a workpiece in a heat treatment system while the workpiece undergoes a thermal expansion and/or contraction includes at least two clamping units configured to apply a radial and/or an axial clamping force to the workpiece to hold the workpiece in the workpiece holding device in a predefined position, and an adjustment mechanism for setting the at least two clamping units to synchronously apply a substantially identical radial and/or axial clamping force to the workpiece.
