Abstract
The invention relates to a coordinate measuring apparatus () for measuring an object (), comprising an x-ray sensory mechanism as a first sensory mechanism that is provided with an x-ray source () and at least one x-ray sensor () which detects the x-rays, and a second sensory mechanism such as a tactile and/or an optical sensory mechanism () that can be placed in the x, y, and/or z direction of the coordinate measuring apparatus in relation to the object. In order to be able to easily measure also large-size test objects, the x-ray sensory mechanism () can be positioned in the coordinate measuring apparatus () according to the second sensory mechanism ().
