A method of manufacturing a modular clamping device for clamping a rotationally symmetrical body on a spindle head of a motor spindle is disclosed. The modular clamping device includes a clamping element and a first intermediate piece. In the method, a first intermediate piece assembly (22) is provided having a plurality of prefabricated, standardized first standard intermediate pieces. The first intermediate piece (210) is selected from the first intermediate piece assortment (22). The clamping element is fabricated, and the first intermediate piece is positioned relative to the clamping element such that the first intermediate piece is positioned axially between the spindle head and the clamping element when the clamping device is mounted to the spindle head.

A miller, a non-transitory computer readable medium, and a method for milling a multi-layered object. The method may include (i) receiving or determining milling parameters related to a milling process, the milling parameters may include at least two out of (a) a defocus strength, (b) a duration of the milling process, (c) a bias voltage supplied to an objective lens during the milling process, (d) an ion beam energy, and (e) an ion beam current density, and (ii) forming a crater by applying the milling process while maintaining the milling parameters, wherein the applying of the milling process includes directing a defocused ion beam on the multi-layered object.

A dental milling machine is provided with a tool which is guided in a chuck. A workpiece arm is mounted opposite the tool to be able to be moved at least in the direction of the spindle axis. With a control device it can be moved in relation to the workpiece, especially by means of a drive motor of the workpiece arm. The workpiece arm has an abutment element, whereby the control device moves the tool and the abutment element towards each other until they abut each other. The control device can be used to detect abutment of the abutment element with respect to the tool, in particular with respect to its tip, in particular by decelerating the (relative) movement of the tool and the abutment element towards each another, upon contact of the tool and the abutment element. This position may be signaled as a reference position and, especially may be stored.
