Abstract: A control device of a machine with a plurality of position-controlled axes controls the position-controlled axes in accordance with a part program while processing a system program. Through the control of the position-controlled axes, an end effector is moved along a track defined by the part program via at least one intermediate element relative to a base body of the machine under position control. While processing the system program, the control device checks before control of the position-controlled axes with a parameterizable model of the machine, whether the end effector can move along the track without collisions. Before checking the part program, the control device receives initial measured values characteristic of an actual configuration of the machine, determines parameters of the model based on the initial measured values and parameterizes the model in accordance with the determined parameters.
