Abstract
A coordinate measuring instrument or machining equipment has a component that is mounted at its one end, movably on two guides, by a component foot. In order to be able to compensate rotation errors of the component, the component foot is arranged such that the component is turned in a plane that is orthogonal to the direction of motion of the component foot when the distance between the guides is changed.
