Abstract: With the invention, a measuring device is proposed for the measurement of motor vehicle wheels (10) in which, with the aid of profiled measuring rolls (20), the different areas of the rim (11) can be measured. These measuring rolls (20) are arranged so they can be displaced in the X and Z directions on positioning and measuring sleds (40) designed as cross-sleds. The cross-sleds (40) are equipped with linear motors (41, 43), with which the positioning and pressing pressure of the measuring rolls can be varied and which, at the same time, detect the deviations occurring during the measurement. The measured data thus obtained are processed in a process computer.
