Abstract:
1. A coordinate measuring device ( 10 ) for measuring three-dimensional or two-dimensional objects ( 15 ) in the direction of the X, Y and Z axes of the coordinate measuring device, comprising a measuring table ( 14 ) that accommodates the object and can be displaced in the direction of the X axis of the coordinate measuring device, as well as a carriage ( 24 ) that can be displaced in the direction of the Y axis of the coordinate measuring device, from which a spindle sleeve ( 28 ) extends that can be displaced in the direction of the Z axis of the coordinate measuring device, wherein the measuring table ( 14 ) can be displaced on two first guideways ( 16 , 18 ) and the carriage can be displaced on at least one guideway ( 20 , 22 ), the two first guideways and the at least one second guideway run in or approximately in one plane, and the at least one second guideway runs at least in sections between the two first guideways ( 16 , 18 ) or sections of the two first guideways.
