If you work in an area where machinery is present, you know that if the machines are properly aligned, that’s good, and if they’re not, well… that’s bad. What are some of the bad things that happen when you have misaligned machinery?
Coupling Damage
If and when machines aren’t aligned well, you can expect coupling damage. Bearings may wear out, příliš, causing the machine to break down. Seals can be damaged, leading to leakage. The shaft can become impaired. All of these things can cost a company both time and money. How do you notice if you have a bad alignment? If the machinery is vibrating in an out-of-the-ordinary way, then you could have trouble. If your energy bills are skyrocketing, it could be because your machines are out of alignment and having to work that much harder just to try and do their jobs.
