Laser alignment using the CSI 2140

Technews Industry Guide - Maintenance, Reliability & Asset Optimisation 2016 Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration

In manufacturing environments, maintenance teams are pressured to get machines repaired and back into service as quickly as possible. But the job isn’t complete without precision alignment.

Machinery health management, including proper shaft alignment, helps maximise the reliability and availability of production assets – extending machine life in some cases from months to years.

Maintenance and reliability personnel can review predictive diagnostics and analyse machinery health data in Machinery Health Management software (AMS Suite), then schedule field maintenance and alignment. Using the new alignment application for the CSI 2140, maintenance personnel are easily guided through the alignment process in less time than ever before. Little training is required to quickly achieve precision results.

This laser shaft alignment solution includes the alignment application for the CSI 2140 Machinery Health Analyser as well as the CSI 8240 sensALIGN high-precision laser shaft alignment fixtures. Together, these pieces comprise a complete alignment system that gets the job done quickly and accurately. It provides for:

• Easy shaft alignment.

• Wireless alignment for convenience and safety.

• Easy alignment-fixture aiming.

• Guided user interface.

• Accurate results.

• Flexible and efficient alignment modes of operation. Multiple alignment modes are available to address any shaft alignment task: auto sweep, manual sweep, dual-pass, 4-point auto, 4-point manual, advanced applications, foot pre-check, thermal growth, averaging, vertical align and straightness.

• Easy archiving and reporting.

• Time-saving alignment fixtures are available: extra-thin brackets, compact magnetic brackets, magnetic sliding brackets and magnetic bolt hole brackets.
