Description
Shaft misalignment is responsible for as much as 50% of all costs related to rotating machinery breakdowns.
Accurately aligning shafts can prevent a large number of machinery breakdowns and reduce much of the
unplanned downtime that results in a loss of production.
The Shaft Alignment course is aimed at anyone interested in understanding the importance of shaft alignment.
This may include: Mechanical, Electrical Engineers, Reliability Managers, , Ship Managers, Technical
Superintendents, Ship Masters, Shipyards Technical Staff; Surveyors; Insurance Inspectors; Naval Architects;
Marine Engineers; Etc.
Machines that have been precision aligned run longer, and cost less to run. Misalignment greatly reduces the
life of bearings, seals, shafts and couplings. This course will provide an overview of the benefits of alignment,
soft foot correction, dial-indicator and laser alignment methods, and how to move the machine.
Who should attend?
The shaft alignment course is ideal if you want to start your career as an expert in shaft alignment.
On the other hand, if you want to know more about shaft alignment, its benefits, laser alignment procedures,
then this course will give you a very good introduction.

misalignment has no measurable effect on motor efficiency, correct shaft alignment ensures the smooth,
efficient transmission of power from the motor to the driven equipment. Misalignment produces excessive
vibration, noise, coupling- and bearing-temperature increases, and premature failure of bearings, couplings or
shafts. There are three types of motor misalignment:
Angular misalignment occurs when the motor is set at an angle to the driven equipment.
Parallel misalignment occurs when the two shaft centerlines are parallel, but not in the same line.
Combination misalignment occurs when the motor shaft suffers from both angular misalignment and parallel
misalignment simultaneously.
Larger motors are usually directly coupled to their loads with rigid or flexible couplings. Rigid couplings do not
compensate for motor-to-driven-equipment misalignment.Flexible couplings also can reduce vibration
transmitted from one piece of equipment to another.
By completing the Alignment Fundamentals course, you will gain the basic knowledge of alignment that will
help you in becoming an expert in machinery alignment.

It was very informative. It would be nice if it was not so plant oriented and offered more examples in the marine
field.
