1. A measuring device comprising:
a hardness meter for measuring hardness;
an actuator that presses the hardness meter against an object to be measured;
a range finder that measures a distance corresponding to a distance between the hardness meter and the object to be measured;
a camera for capturing an image of a measurement range in the object to be measured;
a movement mechanism including a header to which the hardness meter, the range finder, and the camera are fixed, wherein the movement mechanism is configured to move the header to a desired position within the measurement range;
a fixing member for fixing the movement mechanism to the object to be measured; and
a height adjustment mechanism that adjusts the distance between the hardness meter and the object to be measured when the movement mechanism is fixed to the object to be measured by the fixing member.
