Claim:
1. A mechanical component, comprising: a mount; an adjustable part connected to the mount in such a way that the adjustable part is selectively set in relation to the mount at least into a first vibration mode having a first natural frequency and into a second vibration mode having a second natural frequency different from the first natural frequency; a first sensor unit providing a first sensor signal having a first ratio of a first maximum absolute value of the first sensor signal which arises in the event of an excitation of the first vibration mode of the adjustable part and a second maximum absolute value of the first sensor signal which arises in the event of an excitation of the second vibration mode of the adjustable part; and a second sensor unit providing a second sensor signal having a second ratio of a first maximum absolute value of the second sensor signal which arises in the event of an excitation of the first vibration mode of the adjustable part and a second maximum absolute value of the second sensor signal which arises in the event of an excitation of the second vibration mode of the adjustable part; wherein the first sensor unit and the second sensor unit are interconnected with one another to generate an overall signal with the aid of at least the first and second sensor signals, the overall signal having an overall ratio of a first maximum absolute value of the overall signal which arises in the event of an excitation of the first vibration mode of the adjustable part and a second maximum absolute value of the overall signal which arises in the event of an excitation of the second vibration mode of the adjustable part, and wherein the overall ratio is greater than the first ratio of the first sensor signal and greater than the second ratio of the second sensor signal.
