Shaft/coupling misalignment is responsible for over half of all excessive vibration in machines. The resulting premature bearing and seal wear has a significant effect on machine life, production availability, and ultimately, your plant?s profitability. Precise and consistent alignment of all your rotating equipment will help you reduce maintenance costs and unscheduled downtime, increase process quality, and extend machine life. This course teaches alignment principles (applicable to all methods and machinery) in practical, easy to understand terms and also provides hands-on experience performing precision alignment.

Reverse dial indicator or laser alignment courses are offered depending on the needs of the client. Subject coverage is similar for both versions and each includes a full overview of all current alignment practices.

Alignment is part of proactive maintenance procedures to find and eliminate underlying causes of machinery failure, and thus attain these benefits:

• Extending the life of machinery parts and the interval between failures
• Cost savings on energy consumption
• Reduced downtime of machineries
