Vertical flanged machines
A typical vertical machine arrangement comprises one machine mounted on top of the other
using a bolted flange.
Flange-mounted machines may have a vertical or horizontal orientation. In either case, align-
ment corrections are made directly at the flange.
Angularity is corrected by inserting or removing shims between the flanges. The touch device
calculates the shimming thickness for each flange bolt.
Offset is corrected by positioning the flange laterally.
l (1) Sensor connected to RFmodule
l (2) Laser
The laser and sensor are mounted on either side of the coupling as for horizontal machines,
with the laser on the shaft of the bottom machine. As the electronic inclinometer cannot dir-
ectly determine the rotation angle of vertical shafts, the measurement mode for vertical
machines is Static Clock and vertiSWEEP.
Marking measurement positions
For Static Clock measurement mode, the eight 45° measurement positions used with these
procedures must be marked accordingly on the machine.
