4.2 Horizontal machine alignment – preparing for the
alignment procedure
Before using the Shaft Alignment application, prepare the machines as described
below.
Switch off the machines before commencing work, and make sure that they
cannot be started accidentally!
4.2.1 Solid, flat foundation
A solid, rigid foundation is required to obtain correct, lasting shaft alignment that
allows long-term uninterrupted machine service.
4.2.2 Machine mobility
If the machine to be moved stands directly on the foundations, it cannot be lowered
for alignment correction. It is therefore advisable to start with about 2 mm (80 mils)
of shims beneath the feet of both machines. Hydraulic or screw-type positioning aids
are recommended for horizontal movement.
The three application levels
available are ‘Standard’,
‘Advanced’ and ‘Expert’ The
registered level will appear
after the firmware version.
WARNING
Switch off the machines before commencing work, and make sure that they
cannot be started accidentally!
