A method for calibrating a system with a conveying apparatus and at least a first robot includes determining the positions of at least three measuring points of a first component transported by the conveying apparatus in a first transport position using the first robot. The method further includes determining the position of at least one of the measuring points in a second transport position using the first robot, or determining the positions of at least two of the measuring points of the component in a third transport position and the position of at least one other measuring point in the third transport position or at least one of these measuring points in a fourth transport position using at least one second robot.
