Laser Alignment
AxFlow's laser alignment services for complete pump assemblies
Vibration caused by wear of impellers or misalignment of the rotating parts can be a big factor in early pump failures. AxFlow UK can balance rotating assemblies up to 1.5 tonnes to ISO 1940 G1. As a minimum standard, we balance to G2.5 (maximum 2.5mm/s).
Laser shaft alignment provides faster, easier, and more accurate results. The laser beam remains level and produces a precise and uniform reference on all sorts of procedures such as motor shaft, motor coupling and bearing alignment.
Laser Shaft Alignment offers the following benefits:
- Prolonged bearing life.
- Reduced stress on couplings/reduced risk of overheating and breakage.
- Reduced wear on seals/prevents contamination and lubricant leakage
- Reduced friction/reduced energy consumption.
- Reduced noise/reduced vibration.
- Increased machinery productivity.
- Reduced replacement components and machinery downtime costs.
AxFlow have a team of site engineers that can carry out laser alignment anywhere in the UK.
