Alignment Principles and
Technology
OBJECTIVE
Alignment is the proper
positioning of machinery parts to ensure smooth operation. Proper
alignment of equipment is essential for long life of equipment and
couplings. Misalignment can cause vibration, which decreases coupling,
bearing and seal life. Alignment in the operating condition must be within
equipment manufacturers specified tolerances to avoid these problems.
The principle objective of this course is to educate the participants in
the principles of alignment, preparation prior to performing shaft
alignment, measuring techniques and calculation by using various alignment
methods to ensure smooth operation and minimize equipment or machinery
parts problem.
