Fixturlaser PAT - Belt Alignment!

Fixturlaser PAT for Busses?

A creative application for the Fixturlaser PAT sheave alignment tool has paid off for New Flyer of America and one of its customers, King County (Seattle, WA) Metro Transit Division Fleet Engineering and Vehicle Maintenance. New Flyer is a major manufacturer of heavy-duty buses in the U.S. and Canada.

Before using the Fixturlaser PAT, New Flyer was having to “warranty thousands of belts” because of premature failure. King County Metro was trying to reduce the number of “Road Calls” from bus breakdowns in its 1,400+ bus fleet. The Fixturlaser PAT has proven itself with New Flyer, King County and most importantly, its riders as belt failures and related “Road Calls” have been substantially reduced.

This highlights a creative use of a great laser alignment tool by maintenance professionals who build and maintain these assets with the goal to increase the mechanical reliability.
