SKF's shaft-alignment tools help to extend bearing and shaft service life in applications such as coupled shafts, pumps, motors, mixers, gearboxes and compressors.
The TKSA 20 and TKSA 40 models harness the power of lasers to achieve pinpoint accuracy.
They can help cut machinery breakdowns by up to 50 per cent, leading to improved machine reliability and performance, as well as increased productivity and profitability.
This reduces energy consumption, vibration and noise, reducing the stress placed on couplings and seals.
Both the TKSA 20 and TKSA 40 display real-time configuration values, allowing the results of alignment corrections to be seen as they are being performed.
In particular, the TKSA 20 is said to be exceptionally quick and simple to use and requires no training for personnel to operate.
Additional calculations are no longer required to make any necessary adjustments, as the device gives clear real-time coupling and feet values throughout the alignment process.
For applications requiring a greater degree of functionality and feedback, the TKSA 40 allows alignment results to be stored, shared and downloaded to a PC via a USB connection.
This model features an animated graphical interface on a 4in backlit screen and alphanumeric key functions, while pre- and user-definable tolerance tables simplify alignment analysis.
Both models offer a soft-foot function to establish if machinery is standing evenly on all feet, while laser lines and scales enable the rapid pre-alignment of grossly misaligned machines.
Designed for universal use, these tools feature language-free menus and user-selectable measurement units.
A quick-start guide and intuitive menus allows any technician to quickly become familiar with the process.
