After rotating the shafts to different measuring
positions, the system calculates the relative
distance between the two shafts in two
planes. The distances between the two
measuring planes, distance to the coupling,
number of bolts and pitch circle diameter 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 according to the values
displayed. The angular misalignment is
corrected by placing shims under the bolts
and offset is corrected by moving them
laterally.
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.
