PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a non-contact calibration pointer for a multi-axis machine tool. SOLUTION: A robot machine 10 includes the machine tool 18 removably supported on a mount 16 so as to trace a programmable route 42 on a work 26. The calibration pointer 28 includes a housing 30 with the same shape as a tool so as to be supported on the mount, and a laser 32 is fixed to the inside of the housing and radiates a laser beam 32 to the work. In an operating method, the laser beam is projected from the laser to a focus spot 34a of the work in an offset place from the work. The spot is set to allow correct programming of the machine without contact with the work.
