A honing machine () for honing a bore in a workpiece comprises a support structure () fixed to the machine and at least one honing unit () which is mounted on the support structure and which has a main support (), which can be mounted fixedly in relation to the support structure, and a spindle unit (), which is supported by the main support and in which a spindle shaft () is rotatably mounted, wherein the spindle shaft () is rotatable about a spindle axis () by means of a rotary drive and, at a tool-side end (), has a device for the fastening of a honing tool. The honing machine furthermore has a linear guide system which is arranged between the main support () and the spindle unit () and which serves for guiding a linear stroke movement of the spindle unit () relative to the main support (), a stroke drive for generating the stroke movement of the spindle unit (), and an alignment system () for setting the alignment of the spindle axis () in relation to the support structure (). The alignment system () is designed for the continuously variable, reversible setting of the alignment of the spindle axis () in relation to the support structure (), wherein the alignment system is designed for the independent setting of the position of the spindle axis () along two mutually perpendicular axes of translation and for the setting of the orientation of the spindle axis () in relation to two mutually perpendicular axes of rotation.

In the case of a method for measuring the geometry of a drilled hole in a workpiece, a measuring system is used which has a measuring unit with a measuring mandrel that can be moved bidirectionally along a travel path parallel to a measuring mandrel axis. The measuring mandrel is calibrated at least once with the use of a reference device by way of at least one reference element. During a measuring operation, the reference device is arranged in a neutral location outside the travel path of the measuring mandrel in such a way that the measuring mandrel can be introduced into the drilled hole without dipping through the reference element. To carry out a calibration operation, the reference device is moved out of the neutral location. The measuring mandrel is moved into a calibrating location, where a measurement for calibrating the measuring mandrel is carried out.

A honing machine () for honing bores in workpieces has honing spindle () which is mounted movably in a spindle housing (), is rotatable about a spindle axis () by means of a rotary drive (), is drivable in an oscillating manner parallel to the spindle axis by means of a lifting drive and, at a tool-side end, has a device for fastening a honing tool arrangement with an expandable honing tool. Furthermore, an expanding drive for expanding the honing tool is provided, wherein the expanding drive is connected to the spindle housing and is coupled to a feed rod () running in the interior of the honing spindle. The honing machine is characterized by a monocoque housing (), which has a spindle housing portion (-), which serves as the spindle housing, for receiving the rotary drive (), and an expanding system portion (-), which is formed integrally with the spindle housing portion, for receiving the expanding drive ().
