If the two axes are misaligned, they will need to be adjusted and aligned. Otherwise, it may cause motor failure and cause heavy losses.
Specific adjustments need to be completed through the following four steps:
① Measure the magnitude and direction of deviation of one axis relative to the other axis.
② Calculate the correction amount that needs to be adjusted based on the basis of the equipment.
③ Move the adjusted equipment according to the calculation results to make it closer to the ideal alignment state.
④ The adjustment process usually requires adjusting the tilt offset first and then removing the parallel offset. With the advancement of testing equipment, the accuracy of two-axis adjustment is getting higher and higher.
The most common methods used today are rulers and feeler gauges, but other methods include dial indicators, electronic alignment equipment, and state-of-the-art laser alignment equipment.
For ordinary equipment, the first two methods are simple, cheap, and very practical. For large and critical equipment, laser alignment equipment should be used for alignment.
