Laser Alignment

Maximizing the Life of Bearings, Seals, and Couplings! Being one of the most effective ways to ensure an accurate alignment, Offshore Reparos Navais uses PRÜFTECHNIK systems to perform laser alignment on rotating machines of several applications such as conveyors, compressors, gearboxes, couplings, propeller shafts, transfer boxes, generators, direct-drive fans, motor-driven pump, and gas turbines.

An accurate report showing numerically and graphically the alignment conditions as found and as left at both the coupling and foot positions, within specified customer tolerances.

Among others misalignment leads to:

An accurate report showing numerically and graphically the alignment conditions as found and as left at both the coupling and foot positions, within specified customer tolerances.

Among others misalignment leads to:

  • Premature bearing seal, shaft, or coupling failures
  • High bearing temperatures
  • Excessive vibration
  • Looseness of foundation bolts
  • The breaking (or cracking) of shafts at, or close to the inboard bearing
  • High power consumption
