Laser Alignment
A high percentage of equipment failure and associated down time of in-service equipment is due to shaft misalignment. A direct coupled machine that is misaligned not only destroys components such as couplings, shafts and bearings, but also increase the amount of energy used to operate a machine.
The benefits of precision shaft alignment is clear: machines consume less power, operate with appropriate vibration levels and limit wear on bearings, couplings and mechanical seals thereby extending life of equipment. Results are equipment reliability with predicable up-time, no unplanned work stoppages, reduced operating costs with minimal degradation of machine components. A high percentage of equipment failure and associated down time of in-service equipment is shaft misalignment. A direct coupled machine that I misaligned not only destroy components such as couplings, shafts and bearings, but also increase the amount of energy used to operate a machine.
The two types of misalignment are parallel and angular. The most common effects of misalignment are seal failure, bearing failure, coupling failure, increased energy consumption, and excessive vibration.
