An axial piston machine comprising:
- a pivoting cradle having alterable inclination,
- at least one adjustment device extending substantially in the longitudinal direction of the axial piston machine, the at least one adjustment device comprising an adjustment piston for displacing the pivoting cradle, and
- a return element being adapted to provide information regarding the relative position of the adjustment piston and, accordingly, the relative position of the pivoting cradle, and to provide information regarding the adjusted conveying volume, by way of the relative position of the return element with respect to a housing of the axial piston machine and by acting upon a control device provided on the housing side,
- wherein the return element and the adjustment device are disposed in a plane which extends in parallel with an axis of rotation of the axial piston machine and perpendicular to a pivot axis of the pivoting cradle.
