What is a Laser Shaft Alignment Tool?

Laser alignment tool from Seiffert Industrial

Seiffert Industrial sells a lot of laser shaft alignment tools. For those of you who are unfamiliar with these tools, they can be summed up quite succinctly as tools which perform measurements by means of two sensors mounted on two connected shafts.

How Laser Shaft Alignment Tools Work

Laser shaft alignment tools have sensors which emit laser beams– as the two beams are emitted at the same time, a comparison of both reveals whether or not the shafts are aligned and within a specific tolerance. Tools utilize some sort of display unit to show the user the data. This allows the user to analyze what’s truly going on and then make needed corrections.

For those who care about mechanical reliability, such as engineers, laser shaft alignment tools make their jobs easier and more efficient. They work well for dimensional analysis since the laser beams are free from the laws of gravity. They also don’t have bracket sag or coupling anomalies. Indeed, laser tools allow for calculating very precise values such that horizontal and vertical corrections can be made. Some lasers can even measure things such as flatness, straightness and/or parallelism.

Industries thrive on machinery that works as intended without error. But what if seals fail? What if energy is lost? What if machines are vibrating too much? Machinery that’s out of alignment will end up costing businesses time and money because the jobs aren’t being done properly! Do đó, laser shaft alignment tools play an important role in ensuring that equipment is aligned as intended.
