Abstract
A measuring device includes a base body, and a measuring head which is movable between a rest position and a measuring position. The measuring device also includes an apparatus for moving the measuring head from the rest position into the measuring position, and a stop for limiting the motion of the measuring head from the rest position into the measuring position. A motorized drive unit for adjusting the position of the stop is operatively associated with the stop in such a way that the measuring position is adjustable, and a control unit is provided for activating the drive unit.
