SHAFT ALIGNMENT
HORIZONTAL MACHINES
INTRODUCTION
Shaft alignment: Determine and adjust
the relative position of two machines
that are connected, such as a motor and
a pump, so that the rotational centres of
the shafts are collinear, when the
machines are working in a normal
operating condition. Correction of
horizontal shaft alignment is done by
moving the front and the rear pair of
one machine‟s feet, vertically and
horizontally, until the shafts are aligned
within the given tolerances. A tolerance
table is available in the system.
The Fixturlaser GO Pro system has two
measuring units that are placed on each
shaft by using the fixtures supplied with
the system. After rotating the shafts
into different measuring positions the
system calculates the relative position
between the two shafts in two planes.
The distance between the two
measuring planes, distance to the
coupling and distances to the machine
feet are entered into the system. The
display box then shows the actual
alignment condition together with the
position of the feet. Adjustment of the
machine can be made directly,
according to the displayed values.
The alignment results can be saved in
the memory manager. The
measurements in the memory manager
can easily be transferred to a PC for
further documentation purposes.
