Laser Alignment
Poorly aligned shafts are responsible for many machine problems: Tests have shown that incorrect alignment is the cause for around 50% of machine breakdowns.
When misaligned, the loading of shafts dramatically increases due to the reaction forces created within the coupling. Poor Alignment means:
- Premature bearing, seal, shaft and coupling failures
- High Bearing and coupling temperatures
- Excessive vibration
- Looseness of foundation bolts
- The breaking (or cracking) of shafts at, or close to the inboard
- High power consumption
The resulting downtime, production loss and repair result in high costs. Precise alignment of shafts not only saves money, but also pays in the long term with trouble-free machine operation.
