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.The Importance of Motor Shaft AlignmentProper motor shaft alignment increases the operating life span of rotating machinery. To achieve this goal, components that are the most likely to fail must be made to operate within their acceptable design limits.While 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
