INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your choice of Fixturlaser Shaft 100. We hope that this system will be your favourite tool from now on. This manual will take you through the different procedures. Since the system is built for easiest possible use, you will not need to read the entire manual but please take a look at the pages concerning handling and care before you get started with your first alignment. The Fixturlaser Shaft 100 user interface is entirely built upon signs and icons, no text. In most cases the icons are clear and do not cause any misunderstanding, but to your convenience you will find an icon index in the end of this manual. This manual describes the system and its functions. It is not an alignment handbook sorting out the different problems you might run into when you perform an alignment. But it will help you with the basic procedures for each of the programs provided with the system.

FIXTURLASER SHAFT100

THE METHOD
FIXTURLASER SHAFT 100,
HOW IT WORKS

The Fixturlaser Shaft 100 is based upon the principle of a reverse indicator alignment system. Instead of steel bars with dials it uses two laser beams. Unlike steel bars the laser beams do not have the disadvantage of sagging and this contributes to the systems high degree of accuracy. The Fixturlaser Shaft 100 also has two measurement systems but in this case these are electronic targets rather than mechanical dial indicators. These are built in together with the laser transmitter in a pair of units, the Transmitter/Detector units (TD-units). With standard dial measurement techniques the results need to be graphed out manually and calculations are needed to establish the corrections required. With the Fixturlaser Shaft 100 all this is done automatically. Real time alignment values are displayed as the machine is moved. You can see the effect of tightening a bolt as soon as it happens. The Fixturlaser Shaft 100 is equipped with a permanent memory where you can store measurement results for later printout or transfer to computers for further processing.

THE TOUCH SCREEN INTERFACE


A touch screen is, as it says, touch sensible. A light touch of your fingertip on the displayed icon activates the icons function. We have found that a clean display with just the necessary information, and with symbols in stead of text, makes it much easier to understand, and reduces the input errors from the user to a minimum. The user interface is based upon icons and fill-in boxes. The icons represent a function and activate the specific functions when touched. The fill-in boxes activate a numerical or alphanumerical keyboard depending on the program you are in. Active or touchable icons and fill-in boxes have a thick outline or/and a grey background.

SAFETY AND CARE


POWER
SUPPLY

The Fixturlaser Shaft 100 is powered by four alkaline batteries, size LR 20, in the display unit or by the optional external power unit. The lifetime of the batteries is approximately 24 hours when the system is used for a typical alignment job. The power indicator in the main menu displays the power from the batteries. When the power is low a battery replacement warning appears on the screen. The batteries are replaced by opening the caps revealing the battery tubes. There are two batteries in each compartment. The batteries should be replaced with the plus pole pointing inwards the display unit and the minus pole pointing towards the caps. You can use rechargeable NiCd-batteries but you should expect shorter operating time than with alkaline batteries. If the system turns off due to low power, the system returns, after battery replacement or connection of external power, to the application where it was when it turned off. No information is lost! If the system is to be stored for a longer period of time the batteries should be removed to prevent damage. The external power unit is connected to the terminal next to the serial port on the display unit and to a wall socket with 110 - 240 Volts.

SAFETY
The Fixturlaser Shaft 100 use two laser diodes with a power output of < 0,5 mW. The laser classification is Class 2 which is considered safe for its intended use with only minor precautions required. These are: Never stare directly into the laser transmitter. Never shine the laser directly into anyone elses eyes. Your system complies with the requirements in: SS-EN-60825-1-1994 British Standard BS 4803 Parts 1 to 3 Deutsche Industrie Norm DIN JEC 76 (CO) 6 USA FDA Standard 21 CFR, Ch 1, Part 1040.10 and 1040.11

TREATMENT

AND CARE

The Fixturlaser Shaft 100 has been developed for industrial use and is sealed against water and dust in accordance with IP65. The system should be cleaned with a cotton cloth moistened with a mild soap solution with exception for the detector surface, which should be cleaned with alcohol. Do not use paper tissue, which can scratch the detector surface. For the best possible function, the laser diode apertures, detector surfaces and connector terminals should be kept free of grease or dirt. The display unit should be kept clean and the screen surface protected from scratches.

FIXTURE ATTACHMENT & CABLE CONNECTION


Attach the V-block fixtures on the shafts of the measurement object, one on each side of the coupling. Tighten the tension screws firmly, always using the supplied tool. Do not overtighten. Mount the rods to the fixture and tighten firmly. Attach the TD-units on the fixtures. The TD-M should be mounted on the moveable machine and the TD-S on the stationary machine. If the shaft diameter is too large the chains can be extended with the optional extension chains. Connect the cables between the display unit and the TD-units. There are two ways you can do this: 1. 2. Connect one cable between the display unit and one of the TD units. Then connect the second cable between the TD-units. Connect one cable from one of the terminals on the display unit to one of the terminals on TD-M. Then connect the second cable from the other terminal on the display unit to one of the terminals on TD-S.

You can use any of two terminals on each unit. If, for any reason, you detach a cable during measurement you will need to return to the main menu and then restart the measurement program.

16

FIXTURLASER SHAFT100

The optional extension fixtures are used together with either the V-block fixtures or the magnet bases. If the space between the machine casing and the coupling/shaft end is too short for a standard set-up this fixture solves the problem.

PRE-ALIGNMENT FUNCTIONS
In the efforts to obtain the best possible conditions for a shaft alignment it is necessary to check whether the shafts are bent, the machine base is warped or if there is a soft foot condition. Alignment of machines exposed to pipe strain or thermal growth is easily performed with the Compensation value function. The Thermal offset program provides the possibility to pre-set known compensation values for thermal growth. Values required are normally to find in the machine specifications. The Fixturlaser Shaft 100 accepts foot values, dial values or angular-/parallel error values.

FIXTURLASER SHAFT100

23

THERMAL OFFSET
Most machines develop a certain amount of heat while running. In the best case both the driving and the driven machine are affected equally requiring no input of compensation values. But in several applications the driven machine is either hotter, i.e. a pump for hot liquid, or cooler than the driving machine. The machine manufacturers define the thermal growth of the machines differently, but in most cases you will find it as a factor of deliberately misalignment expressed in parallel offset and angular error. In the Fixturlaser Shaft 100 you can pre-set these values from the shaft alignment program before starting your alignment work. Accepted values are feet values, clock values and parallel offset/angular error.

PROCEDURE
1. When in the Horizontal Shaft Alignment program touch the Tool icon. Choose one of three ways to express the offset values: feet values, TD values or parallel/angular error.

2.

24

FIXTURLASER SHAFT100

Feet values 3A Touch the feet icon where you want to compensate. 4A Touch the foot value icons. Enter the distances required and the foot values in mm or mils according to the pre-set unit. You can change the entered values by touching the foot value icons. TD values (Clock values) 3B Touch the clock icon. 4B Touch the TD-S value box and enter the value in mm or mils according to the pre-set unit. Do the same thing for the TD-M value. Enter the distance between shaft ends (DBSE). Parallel/angular error 3C Touch the misalignment icon. 4C Touch the Value boxes and enter the misalignment values in mm/100 mm and mm, or mils/inch and mils, according to the pre-set unit. 5. If required you can now change to the horizontal view for entering of compensation values. Touch OK. The entered values are now pre-set and the shaft alignment can be performed with adjustments towards zero-values. The use of compensation values is indicated in the alignment program as a small icon in the upper right corner (the lower left corner in static feet).

Note:

FIXTURLASER SHAFT100

25

SOFTCHECK
A soft foot condition needs to be corrected before any alignment takes place. If not, the measurement result will be of no value. It is more or less impossible to establish if there is a soft foot condition without using some kind of measurement tool. The Fixturlaser Shaft 100 built-in Softcheck program checks each foot and displays the result in mm or mils. The Softcheck program is entered from the Horizontal Shaft Alignment program setup. The measurements A, B, C and D have to be set before checking soft foot.

PROCEDURE
1. 2. 3. Start the Softcheck by touching its icon from the application set-up. Check that all feet bolts are firmly tightened. Select a bolt of your choice by touching its icon.

26

FIXTURLASER SHAFT100

4. 5. 6. 7.

Loosen the bolt fully and then tighten it firmly. Preferable with a dynamometric wrench. The measurement value is registered by touching OK. Continue with the rest of the bolts. Re-measurements can be done at any time. Do the necessary corrections and then check each foot again. Exit by touching the Exit icon.

SHAFT ALIGNMENT
INTRODUCTION
Shaft alignment - correction of the relative position of two machines that are connected, such as a motor and a pump, so that the centre lines of the shafts form a straight line when the machines are working at normal operating temperature. Shaft alignment means moving the front and the rear pair of feet of one machine, vertically and horizontally, until the shafts are aligned to within given tolerances. Alignment tolerances depend to a large extent on the speed of rotation of the shafts. Machine alignment should be carried out to within the manufacturers tolerances. The table below can be helpful if no limits are specified. The suggested tolerances can be used as a starting point for developing in-house tolerances when the machinery manufacturers recommended tolerances are not available. The tolerances are the maximum allowable deviation from desired values, whether zero or targeted offset for thermal growth.

FIXTURLASER SHAFT100

8.

To display the current machine position values touch the horizontal or vertical icon. If the shafts are rotated to a position where the TD-units is NOT positioned in the 12/6 oclock or 9/3 oclock position, the values are displayed with a black mark in the top right corner of the value box and are not real time values. You can toggle between horizontal and vertical position values by using the different icons. See Icon index

To adjust the machine in TripointTM mode 1. Real time adjustment is only available at 12 and 6 oclock position for vertical adjustment and 3 and 9 oclock position for horizontal adjustment. The inclinometer senses which position it is at and automatically updates the readings as the machine is moved. The shaft must be within 3 from 12/6/9/3 oclock positions before real time values are available. This is indicated by the led on the TD-M changing from flashing green to alternate red and green light. 2. If shaft rotation is not possible the vertical and horizontal views, without real time values, can be used to obtain corrective moves but after a movement is carried out the three point measuring sequence must be repeated. This can be done at any time using the re-measure icon.

FIXTURLASER SHAFT100

3.

The result can be printed out by touching the Print icon, or saved for later print-out or transfer to PCs by touching the File Drawer icon. The measurement will be stored in the permanent memory labelled with the current date and time. For more details see The Memory Manager. Note: It is the measurement results that is stored in memory and not the displayed measurement after performed adjustments. To store this, redo the measurement and then touch the File drawer icon.

Note: The shafts should be coupled during the measurement using the Tripoin method in order to achieve as reliable and accurate results as possible. TIPS: The larger the angle over which the three points are measured, the fewer the moves and repeat measurements that will have to be made. Minimum angle between readings is 30.

STATIC FEET SELECTION


In some cases the machine that is displayed as the moveable machine is not moveable, or just some of the feet of the moveable machine are not adjustable. In order to perform a proper alignment in these cases the Static feet selection program will be helpful. In this program you can freely select which feet to be adjustable or locked. The horizontal shaft alignment has to be accomplished before starting the program. Procedure 1. From within the Horizontal Shaft Alignment program, touch the Application set-up icon and then the Static feet selection icon.

2. 3.

Enter the E and F dimensions. Switch to horizontal/vertical view if necessary by touching the Switch view icon.
