Abstract
The invention relates to a method for determining the co-ordinates of a workpiece (). According to said method: a first co-ordinate system, which has a fixed position in relation to the workpiece (), is defined; first co-ordinates of the workpiece () are measured using a first co-ordinate measuring device (); second co-ordinates of the workpiece () are measured using a second co-ordinate measuring device (); and a common set of co-ordinates is generated from the first co-ordinates and the second co-ordinates in the first co-ordinate system or in a second co-ordinate system, which has a fixed position in relation to the workpiece (). The method can be used in particular to determine co-ordinates of a plurality of workpieces () during and/or after the production and/or processing of the workpieces ().
