Type.
The tolerance type changes between Jackshaft and Standard.
Standard tolerance is a combination of offset and angle tolerances. This
tolerance type is a direct indication of the alignment condition. Optimum
alignment occurs when offset and angular misalignments are zero.
Jackshaft tolerance measures the two angles between the shafts.
Optimum alignment occurs when angular misalignment is zero.
Standard tolerance is typically used on short spans where a single
coupling is present. Jackshaft tolerance is typically used on longer spans
where a jackshaft (or spool-piece) coupling is present.
