  • Top Tips for Leveling Your CNC Machine

    CNC machine leveling is an essential function. Optimizing a machine's capability and producing high-quality parts is a key element of its capability.

  • Using the Acoem Bearing Defender as a Lubrication Tool

    There are many tools on the market to use in conjunction with lubrication – mechanic’s stethoscopes, “smart” grease guns which use ultrasonic, or just an ultrasonic tool itself. High-frequency vibration measurements can also do this.

  • Coupling Tolerances vs. Shaft Alignment Tolerances, revisited

    We have several times discussed the differences between coupling alignment tolerances and precision shaft alignment tolerances. As stated in those text the coupling manufacture’s tolerances are for the coupling. As maintenance professionals we are concerned with the coupling, however we are more concerned with the bearings in the machines.

  • Belt Drive Basics

    Belt Drive advantages - quiet in operation, require no lubrication, and are relatively cheap to produce.

  • Compressor Rod Runout with the NXA Runout Probe

    The NXA Runout Probe is a simple electronic tool designed to detect and measure shaft runout. The new tool represents a unique application of a linear variable displacement transducer (LVDT) to provide an easy-to-use but highly accurate measure of machinery problems that can confound the measurement and correction of shaft misalignment

  • Why You Should Always Document Alignment Data

    When everything is running smoothly, digging for the necessary protocols or procedures may feel cumbersome, but doesn’t necessarily set off bells and whistles that a bigger problem may be lurking.

  • Cardan Shaft Alignment in the Belly of a Boat

    During a recent class in a shipyard, there was a need to perform a Cardan Shaft Alignment in a boat with very little space to work in. It also required shooting the lasers through a hole in a bulkhead.
    Looking from the S sensor through the bulkhead at the M Sensor mounted on engine output shaft
    S Sensor mounted on propulsion unit
    It was a challenge, but the guys rose to it and the result

  • Laser Alignment and the Effects of High Humidity

    Can the laser alignment tool withstand use in wet conditions? How resistant is the laser alignment tool to moisture? Sometimes these questions are asked in the context of making a purchase decision to go with one model over another. Other times the questions are driven by some difficulty in completing an alignment in a high moisture environment.

  • Don’t Forget a Lift Check!

    ​A lift check isn’t always done when performing a precision shaft alignment, nonetheless excessive lift can be the cause of alignment frustration.

  • Runout with the NXA Runout Probe

    The NXA Runout Probe was introduced as an accessory to the NXA Pro and Ultimate alignment tools. As originally envisioned, the runout probe was designed with shaft and coupling runout measurements, and direct soft foot measurements in mind.

  • Don’t Be Tempted!

    Often the OJT portion of our training classes begins with an alignment check of a rotating piece of machinery in the client’s facility. This comes after numerous alignments in the classroom, on the training fixtures, performed by the attendees.
    They are then ready to apply their skills learned on the classroom training equipment in their plant. A typical scenario for the OJT training is that th

  • Laser Kit Tips

    The FIXTURLASER Laser Kit consists of two wireless sensor units utilizing two line lasers. The use of line lasers simplifies the setup process minimizing setup time. To make it even easier, the sensors comes pre-mounted on its fixtures and pre-set to the most common setup.
