Roll Alignment Kit Improves Production Efficiency

Newburyport, MA - Pinpoint Laser Systems has developed roll alignment kit to facilitate the alignment of rollers, shafts, and web-handling systems. The newest addition to the Pinpoint line is compact and easy to use in all industrial environments. Typical applications include paper and textile mills, converting lines, printing presses, plastic bag lines, coating lines, and other roller and web-related applications.

The Roll Alignment Kit is an ideal way to make quick, precise and quantitave measurements over large machines with many rollers. The Laser is placed on a swiveling base and a plane of laser light is directed across the top of the rollers. The digital receiver and display provide readings of the roller position relative to the place of laser light and allow the operator to determine the roller orientation to within .001 inch. If the rollers are at different heights it may be necessary to find the best elevation for the laser beam to pass through the machine. The digital information on the position of the laser beam is easily used for calculating surface flatness, runout straightness, parallelism and many other geometric alignment parameters.
