Abstract

The invention relates to a method for measuring a tool (1) for roll machining toothed workpieces, wherein a virtual contact points is calculator on a rounded virtual blade of a virtual tool. The relative orientation between the tool axis (B) and the measuring device (11) as well as a translational relative position between the tool and the measuring device are then calculated and adjusted on the basis of the calculated virtual contact point. The measurement is taken on the real blade in the adjusted relative orientation and relative position, and the measurement can be taken in particular using a cylindrical scanning means in the form of a laser beam, wherein the cylindrical scanning means tangentially contacts the virtual blade in the virtual contact point.
