built-in alignment expert. your alignment knowledge.
The TKSA 60 is an extremely rugged wireless laser shaft alignment tool For effective machine alignment, the measurement is only 5% of the
that can be used in harsh environments. The system provides instant process. Users often find themselves encountering difficulties by
expertise with a built-in step-by-step alignment process, from skipping some important alignment steps. The TKSA 80 system has a
preparation, inspection and evaluation through correction, reporting complete built-in alignment process to increase users’ knowledge of
and analysis. The system incorporates the latest alignment knowledge alignment . The programme takes users from preparation and evaluation
and decades of SKF experience of rotating equipment. all the way through to correction and finally a report of the result.
With a 7 inch screen, the TKSA 80 can accommodate large machine
train alignment jobs. It offers a unique database to store the machine
set-up data for future use, visual inspections on oil leakage, oil level,
foundation bolt status and wear indications.

SKF Machinery shims
To complete the alignment task, the motor often has to be
moved, both sideways and in height. For this operation,
shims must be used. SKF offers a comprehensive range
of precision machinery shims to suit most applications,
available in single packs or in cased sets.
