Precision Optical Alignment

During complex machinery installations, our alignment instruments use advanced technology to accurately measure the position and orientation of mechanical components within a thousandths of an inch. These measurements can be used to detect any misalignment. We then make the necessary adjustments needed to correct such an issue.

Optical alignment of machinery takes place across a variety of industries including aerospace, automotive, energy, food processing, paper, and defense industries.  It can be used for a wide range of applications such as the alignment of engines, turbines, gearboxes, and other mechanical systems. Performing an alignment ensures that machinery and equipment are operating at optimal levels, which improves manufacturing processes, and prevents potential equipment failure.

Oftentimes, a machine does not work in isolation, but rather as a component in a large group of machines. We ensure that every machine in an assembly line is perfectly aligned with its neighbor, so that all work together and function as one cohesive unit. On occasion, a machine may require dismantling, welding, or might be rotated to a different location, which we can help with as well.

Perhaps most importantly, by properly using optical alignment technology, industries can reduce downtime and maintenance costs, improve quality and accuracy, and ensure that their equipment is operating at optimal levels. This can ultimately lead to increased productivity and profitability, which is why optical alignment and complex installations are such important and crucial services that we offer to our customers.
