Zusammenfassung:	The disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for measuring separation and/or orientation between two relatively movable members (e.g., two flanges). The apparatus measures at least one of separation and orientation between a first member and a second member that are movable relative to each other. The apparatus comprising at least one distance measuring device, which comprises a first assembly removably attachable to the first member and a second assembly removably attachable to the second member. The first assembly and the second assembly are configured to provide the distance between the first member and the second member. A method for measuring separation and/or orientation between a first member and a second member is also provided, comprising the steps of: providing a distance measuring device comprising a first assembly removably attachable to the first member and a second assembly removably attachable to the second member; attaching the first assembly to the first member and attaching the second assembly to the second member; measuring the distance between the first assembly and the second assembly; and determining the distance between the first member and the second member, wherein the first assembly and the second assembly are configured to provide a distance between the first member and the second member. L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil de mesure de séparation et/ou d'orientation entre deux éléments mobiles l'un par rapport à l'autre (par exemple, deux brides). L'appareil mesure une séparation et/ou une orientation entre un premier élément et un second élément qui sont mobiles l'un par rapport à l'autre. L'appareil comprend au moins un dispositif de mesure de distance, qui comprend un premier ensemble pouvant être fixé amovible au premier élément et un second ensemble pouvant être fixé amovible au second élément. Le premier ensemble et le second ensemble sont conçus de façon à fournir la distance entre le premier élément et le second élément. L'invention concerne également un procédé de mesure de séparation et/ou d'orientation entre un premier élément et un second élément, comprenant les étapes consistant à : utiliser un dispositif de mesure de distance comprenant un premier ensemble pouvant être fixé amovible au premier élément et un second ensemble pouvant être fixé amovible au second élément; fixer le premier ensemble au premier élément et fixer le second ensemble au second élément; mesurer la distance entre le premier ensem
