Alignment Check Sheet

The alignment report summarizes the cold alignment of a propane compressor. Soft foot checks found minor issues that were corrected, with readings under 1 mil. Alignment using rim and face methods found the vertical angular misalignment was within tolerance at 3 mils, and horizontal angular misalignment was also within tolerance at 1 mil. Both vertical and horizontal offset misalignments were within tolerance after accounting for thermal growth.
