Benefits of Belt Transmission Alignment
A common misconception is that pulleys aren’t significantly affected by misalignment. This assumption means that energy companies are charging too much for their electricity. Several studies have shown how proper alignment can save up to 10% energy costs. It’s easy to extend the life of your equipment thanks to proper alignment. And whichever tool you choose for belt transmission alignments usually pays for itself in a few months.
Correctly aligned machines mean significant improvements
Improved machine availability
The increased service life for belts, pulleys, bearings, and other parts
Lowering the noise level
With more significant overall savings, fewer spare parts, lower power consumption, and less unscheduled downtime.
The advantages of laser compared to traditional technology
Using lasers makes work go faster and easier than using traditional methods such as rulers or cords. These methods usually require at least two people to carry them out. One person holds the ruler and adjusts the machine, while another person operates the machine. It doesn’t matter which method you use to align things. All of them are equally arbitrary and dependent on who’s doing the alignment.
Laser measurement systems are easier to read than calipers. Furthermore, they’re much more accurate. From the belt manufacturer’s side, it is sometimes recommended that the maximum angular error between the two pulleys be no greater than 0.5 to 025 degrees for optimal service lives and efficiencies. The naked eye cannot usually see such small angles without a microscope.
Wide belt transmissions especially sensitive
Transmissions with multiple belts in width are especially susceptible to misalignment. It is easy to see that the difference in belt tensions between the inner and outer belts can vary important when misaligned. This reduces efficiency because some belts aren’t driven optimally. If one belt is broken, all straps must be changed simultaneously, adding expense to the entire operation. Wide belts are affected more than narrow ones because the tension is uneven over their full width.
Alignment is basically about accurately measuring the positions of motors and pumps’ shafts at two or several points or locations. We provide laser-based TORSION SHAFT ALIGNMENT SERVICES up to 20 meters in length within acceptable tolerances in CEMENT INDUSTRY, MINING INDUSTRY, STEEL PLANT, etc.
