Laser Shaft Alignment

Laser Shaft Alignment

Laser Shaft Alignment

Benefits of using Laser Shaft Alignment:

Reduced machine vibration and increased bearing, seal and drive coupling life
Reduced energy consumption
Reduced shaft alignment work by up to 4 times when compared to other traditional methods
While Laser Shaft Alignment technology is extremely advanced, the principle of measurement is simple using two laser measuring units mounted on either side of the coupling.

Easy Laser D450 Shaft Alignment System

Rugged aluminium and stainless steel design for tough applications
Simple and easy to use – the software guides the user through the entire measurement process
Measurement values are displayed “live”, which means adjusting the machinery is simple
All readings can be saved in memory for final documentation, quality assurance and plant machinery warranty purposes
Future proof! Expandable using software & measurement accessories
Typical Applications: Pumps, motors, diesel engines, gearboxes, fans & turbines
5 Programs available:

Horizontal 9-12-3: For alignment of horizontal machines by the 9-12-3 method.

Softfoot – Easily check the machine is standing evenly on its feet, shows which foot should be corrected

Thermal Growth Compensation – Compensates for the difference in thermal growth between the machines

Tolerance Check – Checks the offset and angle values in relation to selected tolerance.  Shows graphically when the alignement is within tolerance.

Measurement Value Filter – Advanced electronic filter function for accurate measurement result even in poor measuring conditions like air turbulence and vibration.

Measurement Value Filter – Advanced electronic filter function for accurate measurement result even in poor measuring conditions like air turbulence and vibration.

Easyturn – For the alignment of horizontal machines.  Allows complete measurement with only 40 degree rotation of the shafts

Cardan – Shows angular errors and adjustment value on cardan-shaft-coupled/centre-offset machines (requires accessory fixtures)

Vertical – For measurement of vertical & flange mounted machines

Machine Train – For the alignment of between two and ten machines in line (9 couplings). The entire alignment can be followed live on the screen

Reflock – any pair of feet can be locked/set as a reference.

Offset & Angle – Shows centre offset and angular error between tow shafts, for example.  Also suitable for dynamic measurements

Values – Shows live readings from S- and M- unit.  Can be used for shaft alignment, straightness measurement and dynamic measurement.  Up to four detectors can be connected in series and be zeroed individually

Vibrometer – Shows vibration level in “mm/s” or “inch/s”, and bearing condition value in “g”. The measurement complies with vibration standard ISO10816-3 (Requires Vibrometer probe D283)

BTA Digital – For alignment of belt and chain drives. (Requires BTA Digital transmitter and detector unit
