System Overview HighlightsSystem Overview HighlightsSystem Overview HighlightsSystem Overview Highlights Simple user interface User guided through alignment process Fully cableless operation with option for RF communication “Autosweep” fits all applications regardless of shaft restrictions:

start anywhere, stop anywhere, as little as 30 rotation required High precision laser sensors (resolution better than 1 micron) High speed built-in inclinometers for automated measurement Anti-backlash protection Automated data checking and correction Alternate solutions for restricted machine movement Expand applications to include

balancing and vibration

Laser PositioningLaser PositioningLaser PositioningLaser PositioningTwo key differentiators: Number of lasers

– “Two is better than one”

Number of measurements– Better accuracy

– Data quality check

– Universal application

Dual LaserDual LaserDual LaserDual Laser Appeal to common sense

– Two points determine a line. (without two lasers, you have to do tricks)

Appeal to human eye– Rough alignment possible

Appeal to geometry– Better accuracy

and resolutionHouse of Good

Appeal to laziness– Easier to set up

– Gets you in the zone in 1 move

Their method…– Takes 3-4 tries to get there

Do they both work?... Yes.

What’s the difference?...– SPEED!!!

– MAN HOURS!!!

– DOWNTIME!!!

Two levels of tolerance– Acceptable and excellent

Thermal growth compensation– Several ways to input

– Fully compensated in solution - target always (0,0)

– < 1 micron (8225); <0.5 micron (8215)

– Across ENTIRE target area!!!

– In 2 (TWO!) Axes!!!

– FAST response

– Measures gravity directly

All others use “bubble” gauges– Have to wait for bubble to rise

– Measures effect of gravity

Technical Advantages:Technical Advantages:Data QualityData QualityTechnical Advantages:Technical Advantages:Data QualityData Quality Emerson is only system that checks data quality

– Before you move machine

– Flags bad data from user error

– Alerts user to other problems on machine

– Patented!!!

Emerson provides “Predict” mode– Know the impact before you move the machine

Technical Advantages:Technical Advantages:Cableless Measurement & CommunicationCableless Measurement & CommunicationTechnical Advantages:Technical Advantages:Cableless Measurement & CommunicationCableless Measurement & Communication Cables can induce error

– “cable pull”

– Break laser beam with cables

Cables are cumbersome – Wireless is easier & cleaner

Cableless MEASUREMENT and Cableless COMMUNICATION

Emerson vs. Competition– Ludeca/Hyatt have attach transmitter

(costs $$$ and room)

– Other can’t do it at all

Their electronics may be sealed, but…

their optics are exposed (e.g. naked)

Where does it get repaired?

At what cost?

Comments

8215 10 x 10 mm Up to 30’ Great for all close coupled jobs,

Good for jackshafts.

8225 20 x 20 mm Up to 100’(Longest span on the market!)

Great for ALL jobs.

Easier to align lasers on jackshafts.

Easier to keep beam on target during job.

Only ~$1,000 more

PowerPoint Test Drive– Works just like real program

Live Demo– Make sure to MIS-align equipment before you start

(you can’t fix something, if it ain’t broke)
