ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for measuring the thickness of piston rider rings includes a probe disposed in the vicinity of the piston rod of a piston in a horizontal reciprocating machine to determine the vertical distance between the probe and the rod. Changes in the vertical distances are used to calculate wear of the piston rider rings. The apparatus may synchronize vertical distance measurements with the rotation of the crankshaft of the piston so that the distance measurements are taken at the same position of each stroke.
