How to measure compressor cylinder ovality and taper?
Thread Content
Experts asking for help, what are cylinder ovality and taper? How to measure? How to judge whether there is something wrong with the measured value? Could someone please explain it to me? Thank you.
I wonder what compressor deserves such precise measurement? Not sure what the practical significance of this measurement is. If the error is measured, what is the standard for maintenance? What are the specific maintenance and repair methods? I really want to know more about the rise. However, if measurement is required, an inside micrometer will suffice.
Ours is a natural gas compressor with relatively high accuracy requirements. This is measured with an inner diameter micrometer.
Taper is the change in diameter along the axis, which forms a tapered hole. Ellipticity refers to the change in diameter at a certain position from 0 to 360 degrees around the circumference.
It should be roundness and cylindricity, measured with a cylinder gauge and an outer diameter micrometer.
