Abstract
A device for recognising a sheet metal processing means in a sheet metal processing machine includes: an RFID unit for receiving a read signal of an RFID reader with information on an RFID transponder affixed on a sheet metal processing means at a sheet metal processing station in the sheet metal processing machine; an evaluation unit for determining sheet metal processing means data with information on the sheet metal processing means based on the read signal; and a machine interface for controlling a machine system of the sheet metal processing machine based on the sheet metal processing means data.
