MOBIUS Sens Mobius Institute Precision Shaft Alignment: Master Class Machines that have been precision aligned runlonger, use less energy and cost less to operate. Vibration caused by misalignment greatly reduces the life of bearings, seals, shafts and couplings. This computer-based training program will equip you with the knowledge and skillsto use a dial indicator tool or laser alignment system to precisely align two components. Using our step-by-step training system on your computer, you will learn how to recognize misalignment and successfully set up the alignment job, perform the alignment and move the machine. ‘After reviewing the important reasons for performing shaft alignment, we will discuss the prealignment checks and corrections, including how to identify and correct soft foot. We start with the operation of dial indicators, and cover the rim- face and reverse-dial methods. Importantly, we explain and demonstrate the process, and will teach you how the calculations must be performed Laser alignment systems have greatly improved the ease of precision alignment; we will discuss the benefits, basic theory of operation, and tips and techniques for successful use. Finally we discuss how to move the machine and deal with all the problems that you are bound to encounter at some stage. We will also review how to deal with thermal growth, and how to approach a larger machine train. The Mobius Way Mobius makes alignment training unique. We use 3D animations and software simulators that completely demystify and demonstrate the alignment process - you will see the machine from all angles and be able to fully visualize and Understand the effects of misalignment and the three dimensional nature of moving and aligning the machine. You will completely Understand the readings and the threedimensional alignment process. With over 1,000 slides, the slides are fully narrated and illustrated and contain the text. The course is broken up into sections, so you can take the sections you want in any order. We also include quizzes throughout to let you test your knowledge as you go. If you have previously performed shaft alignment, you will find that all of those steps and instructions will suddenly make a whole lot of sense you will find yourself saying ‘Ah, now I understand" or “I wish | took this course years ago”. Precision Shaft Alignment Master Class Understandable Training et www.mobiusinstitute.comMOBIUS Sens Mobius Institute Ifyou align machines, you need this course. if you have a modern laser alignment system you have two choices: you can just set up the lasers, enter the dimensions, take the readings and do what the equipment tells you to do - or you can Understand what you are doing, anticipate problems and complete any alignment job successfully. We will ensure you understand the entire process, and give you the skills to perform precision alignment. We can‘t explain the operation of every model of laser alignment system because of the fast evolution of products, but we will provide you with the knowledge so that you will besuccessful with whatever model you own. While our training covers all of the essential procedures, and is filled with valuable tips and tricks, one of the greatest benefits is that our training will help people understand misalignment. We have developed over 50 3D animations that demonstrate procedures, explain how things work, and clarify confusing concepts. Who Should Attend? Iyou have to align machines, then you need this course. If you own a modern laser alignment system you have two choices: you can just set up the lasers, enter the dimensions, take the readings and do what the equipment tells you to do, or you can Understand what you are doing and be prepared when things go wrong and they will, We will ensure you understand the entire process, and give you the sills to return to the plant and perform precision alignment. Note: Although we will not have time to explain the operation of every model of laser alignment system, we will provide you with the knowledge so that you will be successful with whatever model you own, Course Description Course Duration: 2 days topics include: Introduction to Shaft Alignment © The benefits of shaft alignment © Quick overview of the alignment process Precision Shaft Alignment Master Class Understandable Training et www.mobiusinstitute.comMOBIUS INSTITUTE Mobius Institute What is Misalignment? © What is misalignment? © Adloser look at misalignment Shaft fatigue Even bent shafts have rotational centerlines © Offset and angular misalignment © Alignment conventions ‘Specifying misalignment Using feet corrections to specify misalignment © Using Total Indicator Readings to specify the misalignment © Using offset and angularity to specify alignment targets © Angularity targets © Visualizing tolerance © Tolerances and speed © Spacer couplings jack shafts) conventions and tolerances © Published tolerances, © Dynamic movement Pre-Alignment checks and soft foot © Prealignment tasks Determining the alignment state © Determining the alignment state © Using a straightedge or feeler gauge © Using Dial Indicators © The Rim and Face method © The Reverse Dial method nment systems © Moving the machine © Moving the machine vertically -shimming © Moving the machine laterally 2 Summary Shaft Alignment Mathematics- Offset, angularity and alignment mathematics Precision Shaft Alignment Master Class Understandable Training ...
