Tech/Engineering - Mechanics / Mech Engineering
German term or phrase: Aufnahme
I have a problem with this term. I think it means a part which takes another part, yet I have terms which could mean image.
Here are some examples Schrumpfaufnahmen HSK-Aufnahmen, konische Aufnahme etc.
Der Plattensitz oder Kassettensitz sowie die stark beschädigte *HSKAufnahme* können durch unseren modernen Maschinenpark und unsere technische Ausstattung wieder instandgesetzt werden.
Zuerst wird die HSK-Aufnahme wieder voll funktionsfähig instandgesetzt; anschließend werden die Plattensitze oder Kassettensitze

I see there are some answers, calling it mounting points and the like, but it is in a different context. So, I like to ask this question again.

I am grateful for any suggestions.

Explanation:
via the DIN of the HSK-Aufnahme (DIN 69893) you get to the above, or alternatively a HSK toolholder and other (less used) variations.

Explanation:
All the references seem to be to do with types of tool-holders. A Google search on the "term + English" came up with the reference below, with a corresponding German version linked to the same page.
