Machinery Health™ Laser Alignment Models 8215 and 8225Laser Heads
System Overview Highlights • Simple user interface • User guided through alignment process • Fully cableless operation with option for RF communication • “Autosweep” fits all applications regardless of shaft restrictions: start anywhere, stop anywhere, as little as 30 rotation required • High precision laser sensors (resolution better than 1 micron) • High speed built-in inclinometers for automated measurement • Anti-backlash protection • Automated data checking and correction • Alternate solutions for restricted machine movement • Expand applications to include balancing and vibration
Laser Positioning Two key differentiators: • Number of lasers • “Two is better than one” • Number of measurements • Better accuracy • Data quality check • Universal application Emerson
2” House of Good Alignment Dual Laser • Appeal to common sense • Two points determine a line. (without two lasers, you have to do tricks) • Appeal to human eye • Rough alignment possible • Appeal to geometry • Better accuracy and resolution • Appeal to laziness • Easier to set up
. . . 0° 0° 270° 270° 90° 90° 180° 180° ERROR Sweep vs. Clock Method • Clock Method uses only 3 or 4 points • All competitors only use 3(They assume machine is healthy!!!) As little as 30 degrees Full Sweep provides complete picture Start anywhere… Stop anywhere…
Sweep vs. ClockBiggest differentiator • Our superior method… • Gets you in the zone in 1 move • Their method… • Takes 3-4 tries to get there • Do they both work?... Yes. • What’s the difference?... • SPEED!!! • MAN HOURS!!! • DOWNTIME!!!
Technical Advantages:Tolerance Targets • Improved tolerance targets (patented) • Two levels of tolerance • Acceptable and excellent • Thermal growth compensation • Several ways to input • Fully compensated in solution - target always (0,0)
Technical Advantages:System Resolution • Industry leading resolution: • < 1 micron (8225); <0.5 micron (8215) • Across ENTIRE target area!!! • In 2 (TWO!) Axes!!! Our sensors are linearized too!!! EasyLaser CombiLaser SKF Optalign Rotalign Emerson
Technical Advantages:Angle Measurement • Patented Accelerometers • FAST response • Measures gravity directly • All others use “bubble” gauges • Have to wait for bubble to rise • Measures effect of gravity
Technical Advantages:Data Quality • Emerson is only system that checks data quality • Before you move machine • Flags bad data from user error • Alerts user to other problems on machine • Patented!!! • Emerson provides “Predict” mode • Know the impact before you move the machine
Technical Advantages:Cableless Measurement & Communication • Cables can induce error • “cable pull” • Break laser beam with cables • Cables are cumbersome • Wireless is easier & cleaner • Cableless MEASUREMENT andCableless COMMUNICATION • Emerson vs. Competition • Ludeca/Hyatt have attach transmitter(costs $$$ and room) • Other can’t do it at all
Don’t be afraid to ‘expose’ the competitionSealed vs. Protected Our competitors promote IP rating.Their electronics may be sealed, but… their optics are exposed (e.g. naked) Where does it get repaired? At what cost? Emerson’s lasers are Manufactured and Serviced In the USA!!!
More Applications... Shafts Difficult to Rotate Long Spans More Easily Aligned! Jackshaft Alignment
Alignment Demo Options • CSI 2130 • Enter job name “MHM” • PowerPoint Test Drive • Works just like real program • Live Demo • Make sure to MIS-align equipment before you start(you can’t fix something, if it ain’t broke)
