    Abstract: A monitoring module comprises a tool interface for holding the tool and a tool holding interface for insertion into a tool holder. The monitoring module has a sensor unit, whereby the axis of rotation of the monitoring module runs through the sensor unit. The sensor unit detects a variable representative of an acceleration in a plane normal to the axis of rotation of the monitoring module when the monitoring module rotates together with the tool/tool holder. A computing unit of the monitoring module receives the variables representative of the acceleration recorded by the sensor unit, determines a total acceleration from this, compares the total acceleration with a threshold value and determines that there is a concentricity error of the tool to be rotated, the monitoring module and/or the tool holder if the total acceleration is greater than the threshold value.
