1. A robot tool for coil packaging, comprising
two opposing end faces, each end face being provided with a coupling tool piece, wherein each coupling tool piece is configured to interface with a robot arm of an industrial robot in a direction of an axis extending between said opposing end faces to allow for coupling of the robot tool to the robot arm in the direction of the axis extending between said opposing faces and wherein the coupling tool piece is configured to convey actuating power from a power supply line of the industrial robot to the robot tool;
a roll holder shaft configured to hold a roll of wrapping material, the holder shaft at one end being rotatably mounted substantially midway between said opposing ends and projecting substantially perpendicular to the axis extending between said opposing ends; and
at least one motor configured to be able to drive, prevent and/or brake rotation of the roll holder shaft by said actuating power.
