LUDECA posts Crash Course Video: Machine train alignment

According to Pedro Casanova, Manager of the Alignment Division, “The alignment of machine trains can be a lengthy task. In the past, alignment data of the entire machine train had to be manually graphed to scale to determine optimal moves. The Rotalign Ultra laser alignment tool can now instantly graph results for an entire machine train of up to fourteen machines to scale—maximizing efficiency and minimizing frustration. You can optimize an alignment centerline through a machine train to minimize corrective moves everywhere. Forget graph paper.”

The Machine Train Alignment video is available on the company’s YouTube channel (http://www.youtube.com/LUDECAINC) provides background knowledge along with tips and procedures for efficiently completing the alignment of multiple-element drives using laser equipment. Additional video courses are planned and should be available soon.
