Pinpoint Laser Systems has announced its Microgage Laser Alignment System for use in manufacturing plants and production facilities. The product is said to be easy to use, improve manufacturing efficiency, increase machine life and reduce downtime by ensuring that moving elements and components are well aligned to each other another.
The system has dozens of uses from aligning CNC machine tools, to
checking printing press, aligning webs and rolls, monitoring plastic
injection molding equipment, aligning shafts and drive assemblies. The
system consists of a small compact laser transmitter that forms a very
straight reference line >150 ft long. A digital reader picks up the
laser beam and a handheld display shows the position of the reader to
within 0.0001 in.
The laser can be positioned to form a straight reference line, for checking machinery straightness, runout, and other parameters. A rotating laser base swings the laser in a full circle defining a precise plane for checking the flatness of equipment, rolls, web systems, and more. A right-angle attachment redirects the laser beam for checking squareness of machinery aligning actuators, and precision parallelism adjustments on rollers, guides, tracks, and rails. With different adapters, the system is said to attach to any machine.
