Claim:
1. A method for measuring the verticality of a container ( 2 ) having a base ( 3 ) from which rises a vertical wall ( 4 ) exhibiting a body 5 , the method consisting of rotating the container ( 2 ) on itself over at least one revolution by a driving system ( 13 ) comprising a supporting plane ( 14 ) for the base ( 3 ) and the body ( 5 ) and a wheel ( 16 ) for driving into container secured by the body ( 5 ) bearing on two abutments ( 17 ) during rotation and of conducting, during the rotation of the container, measurements at different rotational positions of the container, the method comprising: measuring at each rotational position of the container ( the position along a first measurement axis (YA), of at least one first measuring point (PA) located on the base ( the position along a second measurement axis (YB), of a second measuring point (PB) located on the base ( the position along a third measurement axis (XC), of at least one third measuring point (PC) located on the vertical wall ( selecting an angle (a) defined between a first segment (x calculating for each rotational position of the container ( and measuring the verticality considered over at least one revolution of the container by calculating the difference between a maximum value and a minimum value of the quantity depending on the angle (α).
