Built-in pre-defined alignment process:
The TKSA 60 integrates
a pre-defined alignment process into a portable instrument. It provides
users with step-by-step instructions on how to perform alignment in the
most effective and efficient sequence.
The right tools and materials at the right place at the right time.
The system reminds users of the correct tools and materials to use, before carrying out the alignment job.
Visual inspection - Inspection fields are provided for oil level, leakages, foundation bolt status and wear indications, etc.
Fast
template - A database that stores relevant information for the
equipment being aligned, such as machinery name plate data, current
shims and shaft diameter for re-use in future activities.
Soft
foot check - The system gives users the choice to find, correct and
record soft foot conditions by either laser or by feeler gauges.
Horizontal
and vertical shaft alignment - Measurements are performed at any of
three positions, with a shaft rotation of as little as 40 degrees.
The
system assists users to compare inspection results with the information
saved in the fast template so as to identify and prioritize corrective
actions.
Real-time correction - The system displays the live actual value and direction for accurate misalignment correction.
Results
in graphical format - The results are shown in graphical format and the
file can be easily copied and pasted into documents on a PC.
The results show the machine conditions "as-found" and "as-corrected". Desired tolerances are also displayed.
Energy efficiency - The system reports estimated extra energy consumption due to misalignment.
Alignment
reports are recorded in the system, which helps users periodically
compare the alignment history and monitor the machine's health trend.
