Abstract
A measuring machine provides a base provided with a measurement plane and first guide means defining a first longitudinal axis with respect to the measurement plane itself, a first portal-type carriage slidable along such first guide means and provided with second guide means defining a second axis extending transversely with respect to the measurement plane, a second carriage movable on such second guide means and provided with third guide means defining a third axis orthogonal to the measurement plane, a measurement head provided with a feeler carried by the second carriage and movable with respect to it along the axis by hand grip means fixed to the second carriage and provided with at least one actuating element for manual control of the translation of the measurement head and transmission means for coupling the actuation element to the measurement head.
