Alignment

Laser alignment - We carry a full complement of laser alignment tooling. We utilize geometric laser trackers and coupling alignment systems. Our service engineers have the tools and expertise to perform all types of alignment. Common types of measurements performed include coupling, geometric, line bore, flatness, straightness, parallelism and cardan shaft.

Optical Alignment – Optical measurement using telescopes and precision targets is considered to be one of the most dependable ways to make measurements that are in the order of a thousandth of an inch. Our field service department utilizes Brunson Instruments equipment for optical alignment applications, such as positioning driveline bearings and components.

Strain Gage Alignment - We perform strain gage alignment measurements to determine both the vertical and horizontal bearing reactions in shafting systems. The advantages to using the strain gage method is that there is typically no dismantling of equipment required. Once the strain gages are installed, multi-bearing systems can be measured by rotating the shaft. Calculations can then be made to move bearings to obtain an optimal alignment.
