The positioning and measuring system includes a coordinate positioning machine comprising a movable spindle () movable relative to a reference surface, a rotor () rotatably connected with the movable spindle, an actuator () for driving the rotor () in rotation around a rotation axis (), and a coordinate probe () detachably connectable to the rotor () for measuring coordinate of points () of a workpiece () along a path resulting from the composition of a translation movement of the spindle () and a rotation of the rotor (). The points () are offset (r) with respect to the rotation axis () of the rotor ().
