A machine train (power train or multiple drive units) is three or more units with rotating shafts connected to each other. Aligning a machine train can be a cumbersome task with a large risk for making time consuming errors. In many cases, one or more of the machines are affected by thermal growth, and to obtain a precision alignment you need to compensate for that. Using the Fixturlaser XA expansion kit for machine trains, you can perform a precision alignment of machine trains.
The Fixturlaser Machine TrainXA application software with the Fixturlaser XA system, will provide you with:
Express start up and measurement - with compensation for thermal offset
• Possible to insert the whole machine configuration in advance. Can be saved
for future measurements.
• Insert name or machine ID for each machine.
• Insert target values to compensate for dynamic effects.
• The Express mode can be used when measuring.
Express result - with a total overview
• 3D Flash® animations guide you, and show you what has been done so far,
and what you need to do next.
• The result screen shows both horizontal and vertical view.
• The color guiding informs if machines are in or out of tolerance.
• The “Minimal moves function” automatically chooses the best reference
machine, which is illustrated on the screen. Reference machine can also be
selected manually.
• Full result display, horizontal and vertical, is shown directly.
