Fixturlaser GO Pro Manual 2nd edition
1.1
1INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your choice of the
Fixturlaser GO Pro!
We are convinced that you have made
the right decision and we hope the
system will meet, and even exceed,
your expectations.
It is important that you read the
sections about safety and care before
you proceed with your first
measurement.
The purpose of this manual is to guide
you through the different procedures
and operations of the hardware and
software. Since machine installations
and setups are often different from each
other, we have focused this manual on
measurement principles and how to
handle the system.
The manual describes applications,
functions and equipment that may be
available in a Fixturlaser GO Pro
system; the ones that are available in
your specific system depend upon which
application packages and accessories
you have selected.
We wish you many successful
measurements!

The system should be cleaned with a
cotton cloth or a cotton bud moistened
with a mild soap solution, with the
exception of the detector and laser
window surfaces, which should be
cleaned with alcohol.
Do not use paper tissue, which can
scratch the detector surface.
Do not use acetone.
For the best possible function, the laser
diode apertures, detector surfaces and
connector terminals should be kept free
from grease or dirt. The display unit
should be kept clean and the screen
surface protected from scratches.

6SHAFT ALIGNMENT
HORIZONTAL MACHINES
INTRODUCTION
Shaft alignment: Determine and adjust
the relative position of two machines
that are connected, such as a motor and
a pump, so that the rotational centres of
the shafts are collinear, when the
machines are working in a normal
operating condition. Correction of
horizontal shaft alignment is done by
moving the front and the rear pair of
one machine‟s feet, vertically and
horizontally, until the shafts are aligned
within the given tolerances. A tolerance
table is available in the system.
The Fixturlaser GO Pro system has two
measuring units that are placed on each
shaft by using the fixtures supplied with
the system. After rotating the shafts
into different measuring positions the
system calculates the relative position
between the two shafts in two planes.
The distance between the two
measuring planes, distance to the
coupling and distances to the machine
feet are entered into the system. The
display box then shows the actual
alignment condition together with the
position of the feet. Adjustment of the
machine can be made directly,
according to the displayed values.
The alignment results can be saved in
the memory manager. The
measurements in the memory manager
can easily be transferred to a PC for
further documentation purposes.

Fixturlaser GO Pro Manual 2nd edition
6.2
PRE-ALIGNMENT FUNCTIONS
In an effort to obtain the best possible
conditions for shaft alignment, it is
necessary to perform some pre-
alignment checks. In many cases it is
necessary to make these checks in
order to obtain precise alignment. It is
often impossible to reach the desired
alignment results if you do not make
any pre-alignment checks.
Before going on site, check the
following:
Safety regulations?
What are the required tolerances?
Any offsets for dynamic
movements?
Are there any restrictions for
mounting the measuring system?
Is it possible to rotate the shafts?
What shim size is needed?
Before setting up the alignment system
on the machine, check the machine
foundation, bolt and shim condition.
Also check if there are any restrictions
in adjusting the machine (if e.g. there is
enough space to move the machine).
After the visual checks have been
performed, there are some conditions
that have to be considered:
Make sure the machine is off line
and safety tagged.
Check that the machine has the
right temperature for alignment.
Take away old rusty shims (check
that you can remove shims).
Check coupling assembly and
loosen the coupling bolts.
Check soft foot conditions.
Mechanical looseness.

Fixturlaser GO Pro Manual 2nd edition
6.3
Check coupling and shaft run-out.
Pipe work strain.
Coarse alignment.
Check coupling gap (axial
alignment).

Fixturlaser GO Pro Manual 2nd edition
6.4
MOUNTING
The sensor marked “M” should be
mounted on the moveable machine and
the sensor marked “S” on the stationary
machine. The sensors shall be
assembled on their V-block fixture, and
placed on each side of the coupling.
Hold the V-block fixture upright and
mount it on the shafts of the
measurement object.
Lift the open end of the chain, tension it
so that the slack is removed and attach
it to the hook.
