A laser shaft alignment tool performs measurements by means of two sensors mounted on two connected shafts. Both sensors fire a laser beam and receive the other sensor’s beam simultaneously; a comparison of the beams reveals whether the shafts are aligned and within a specified tolerance.
How much is a laser alignment tool?
Shaft laser alignment tool price range: around $3,700 to $25,000. Belt/sheave laser alignment tool price range: around $1,200 to $3,500.
How does a Rotalign work?
Our sensor simultaneously tracks offset (parallel) and gap (angular) on both axes (vertical and horizontal – X and Y). During machine correction, ROTALIGN touch tracks the machine adjustments and their impact in the 4 directions simultaneously.
What is a Rotalign?
ROTALIGN touch is the first laser shaft alignment system on the market to combine high precision on-site measuring tasks and cloud connectivity for worldwide data access and transfer. The single-laser technology enables unrivaled precision, even in harshest conditions and on highly demanding jobs.
What tool is used for alignment?
Alignment Tools However, several precision tools are commonly used in alignment work. Dial indicators, parallel blocks, taper gauges, feeler gauges, a tape measure, a 6-inch rule, and a small mirror are all useful since each one has a part to play in doing alignments.
Which tools are necessary for alignment?
Wheel Alignment Materials
- Tape measure.
- A spool of string.
- Four jack stands (four if you intend on doing all four wheels at the same time)
- Camber gauge.
- 24mm wrench or adjustable wrench.
- 13mm wrench.
- Control arm shims.
