Industrial businesses often rely on a variety of pulley-driven machinery. One integral part of operating pulley-driven machinery is maintaining proper pulley and shaft alignment. These are a few ways that laser alignment can help businesses be more efficient.
Faster Alignment
Pulley alignment can be a time-consuming and tedious project. Relying on a straight edge to align pulleys takes precious time and still does not offer the degree of precision that is needed to keep machines running optimally. Laser alignment is faster and more accurate that other alignment methods.
Reduced Maintenance Costs
Maintenance costs can have a significant effect on the bottom line, so it makes sense to reduce avoidable costs whenever possible. Laser alignment allows for precise calibration of pulleys and shafts which may significantly reduce preventable repairs, including belts, bearings, seals, and shafts.
Less Downtime
Downtime due to machine breakdowns not only costs money for repairs, but also reduces production efficiency. Laser pulley alignment allows for high precision adjustments that may mean less downtime.
Energy Savings
Pulley or shaft misalignment may result in wasted energy. In fact, you may be able to reduce energy usage by as much as three percent with proper alignment. Laser alignment is the most reliable way to precisely align pulleys and shafts.
Environmentally Friendly
Environmentally friendly production processes are not just good for the planet, they are also good for the bottom line. Increasing numbers of consumes are expressing a preference for businesses that adopt environmentally friendly practices. Laser pulley alignment allows your business to use less energy and to produce less waste from failed belts, bearings, and seals.
