Possibility to Use a Digital Measuring Instrument for Monitoring the Thrust Half-Ring of the Crankshaft of the Yaroslavl Motor Plant Engine

Key Points

• Evaluate geometric parameters for defect detection in crankshaft thrust rings used in engines.
• Consideration of nominal geometric parameters for inspection.
• Estimation of defect parameters for quality assessment.
• Recommendation of replacing a traditional micrometer with a digital caliper.
• Identified the need for accurate measurement tools.
• Proposed a new caliper with a precision of 0.001 mm to improve inspections.
