Abstract
Machine for measuring by coordinates having 1 to n measuring axes comprising a piece support and at least one carriage moving on a measuring axis, a sensing device equipping a carriage, characterized by the fact that each axis comprises a carrying structure (1, 2) and a metrological reference structure (11, 21) associated with position sensors (23, 24, 33), these two structures being connected by a connection member, said sensors determining the position of the reference structure of row n in relation to the reference structure of the measuring axis of row n-1.
