Easy Laser Shaft Alignment

Easy Laser Shaft AlignmentBenefits of using Laser Shaft Alignment:
Having correctly aligned machines reduces the risk of breakdowns. Typical problems
arising from poor machine alignment are:

  • LOST PRODUCTION
  • LEAKING SEALS
  • INCREASED VIBRATION
  • HIGHER ENERGY CONSUMPTION
  • BEARING FAILURE
  • SHAFT BREAKAGE
  • COUPLING WEAR
  • QUALITY PROBLEMS

There is much to be gained in terms of time and money by adjusting the machines
within the prescribed tolerances. Investing in a laser-based measuring system such
as Easy-Laser® will benefit the company by reducing the cost of spare parts and lost
production. And the working environment is improved at the same time.

Easy Laser D505 Shaft Alignment System

  • The rugged aluminium and stainless steel design guarantees stable measurement values and reliable alignment even in the harshest of environments.
  • 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:

  1. Horizontal 9-12-3: For alignment of horizontal machines by the 9-12-3 method.
  2. Softfoot – Easily check the machine is standing evenly on its feet, shows which foot should be corrected
  3. Thermal Growth Compensation – Compensates for the difference in thermal growth between the machines
  4. Tolerance Check – Checks the offset and angle values in relation to selected tolerance.  Shows graphically when the alignement is within tolerance.
  5. Measurement Value Filter – Advanced electronic filter function for accurate measurement result even in poor measuring conditions like air turbulence and vibration.

  6. Easyturn – For the alignment of horizontal machines.  Allows complete measurement with only 40 degree rotation of the shafts
  7. Cardan – Shows angular errors and adjustment value on cardan-shaft-coupled/centre-offset machines (requires accessory fixtures)
  8. Vertical – For measurement of vertical & flange mounted machines
  9. 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
  10. Reflock – any pair of feet can be locked/set as a reference.
  11. Offset & Angle – Shows centre offset and angular error between tow shafts, for example.  Also suitable for dynamic measurements
  12. 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
  13. 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)
  14. BTA Digital – For alignment of belt and chain drives. (Requires BTA Digital transmitter and detector unit
