Alignment And Vibration Services Update: What Are The Dangers Of Unnecessary Vibration Measurement?

Unnecessary vibration measurement due to the misalignment of shafts can cause unpleasant noise levels, as well as the faster deterioration of machinery (shaft bearings), and even the machinery being destroyed beyond repair. The use of quality laser alignment equipment is essential for ensuring that vibration measurement is kept within applicable parameters. More specifically, Balancing systems and laser alignment can be used to avoid such problems occurring by accurately assessing the amount of misalignment that may exist, so that the problem can be rectified effectively and swiftly.

Alignment and Vibration Services is a laser alignment equipment provider based in Centurion, South Africa that has been a leading competitor in the industry since 1991. A good laser alignment system is essential in order to align rotating machinery to the requisite tolerance for optimal use. Alignment and Vibration Services make use of the best high resolution Pruftechnik Laser alignment equipment, in order to get the most accurate alignment possible.

What makes Alignment and Vibration Services a market leader?

We at Alignment and Vibration Services can help you get the best use from your machinery, in terms of quality output and life span. Rotating machinery is often subject to damage caused by over-vibration and misalignment, resulting in loss of time and money when the machinery has to be replaced, or is out of commission for repairs. 

Our vibration analysis and laser alignment equipment can prevent these hassles from occurring, by ensuring that equipment is balanced and alerting machine users to potential machine damage or problems before they get out of hand. Vibration sensors also save time and money by directing our specialist maintenance experts to the root of the problem, thus avoiding unnecessary repairs.

What other services do Alignment and Vibration Services offer?

Vibration analysis

Vibration analysis is used to diagnose a specific problem rather than repairing several components of a machine before resolving the vibration problem. As bearings age they begin to vibrate dramatically, which can lead to heavy machine damage. Vibration analysis is a process of vibration measurement and vibration monitoring, via a vibration sensor which is used to alert machine users when vibration levels become dangerous. Vibration analysis systems and corrosion monitors can be used to monitor machinery, predict potential problems and resolve specific vibration irregularities before they lead to large scale damage. As a result it turns many expensive repairs into very simple and cost effective specific component replacements. So why isn’t your facility using vibration analysis?

Accelerometer sensors and vibration measurement sensors can be installed on any rotating machinery (including fans, motors and pumps) in factories, as well as widely used public places such as shopping malls, hospitals and airports
