Alignment laser for pulleys

Machine performance and maintenance costs are often decisive factors, which is why correct belt alignment is becoming increasingly important. Misaligned pulleys can expose machines to unnecessary forces. This results in increased wear and vibrations, which can lead to premature bearing failure and ultimately to machine downtime.

Professional alignment of the pulleys

Drives with two or more belts or with power belts are particularly susceptible to misalignment, which leads to large differences in belt tension. Misaligned pulleys cause increased wear on the drive belts and pulleys, noise and vibrations and can cause unplanned machine downtime. Excessive vibrations can cause bearings to fail prematurely. Additional abrasion causes premature belt failure.

Conventional measuring methods, such as assessment with the naked eye or with the aid of a straight edge or alignment cord, are uncomplicated and quick, but are generally also very inaccurate. Laser-assisted alignment systems enable much more precise alignment.
