Abstract
For determining a space coordinate of a measurement point on a measuring object, the measurement point is approached with a probe head arranged on a displacement mechanism having at least two supports movable parallel to one another. Each support is moved by its own drive. The space coordinate of the measurement point is determined as a function of the respective displacement position of the supports. The two drives are controlled by a common regulator.
