1 Introduction
1.1 Basic and Advanced Laser Alignment Application
overview
The AMS 2140 Basic and Advanced Laser Alignment Applications enable you
to perform horizontal machine alignment. In addition, the Advanced Laser
Alignment Application adds advanced options for horizontal alignment along
with new applications for vertical machines and straightness measurements.
The Basic Laser Alignment Application is similar to the Basic mode available in
the Advanced Laser Alignment Application. Alignment is done with the help
of the sensALIGN
®
laser and sensor (Emerson P/N A8240).
The horizontal alignment feature is used to acquire and display alignment
data for machines where the machine moves are done at the machine feet.
Horizontal alignment is available in Basic and Advanced mode. In Basic mode,
you have access to only a subset of the full functionality of a horizontal
alignment job. In Advanced mode, you have access to the full functionality of
a horizontal alignment job. The controls for enabling thermal growth input,
foot pre-check, review results, live move orientation, live move alerts, setting
the alignment method, and changing the placement of the laser and sensor
are available only in Advanced mode.
Except for differences in the alignment job parameters you can set under the
Laser Align Application ALT screen, the procedure for performing Basic
horizontal alignment is identical to Advanced horizontal alignment.
You can create alignment jobs and transfer them to AMS Suite: Machinery
Health Manager for storage and analysis.
This document only covers horizontal alignment using the Advanced Laser
Alignment Application. For a complete list of the Advanced Laser Alignment
Application functionality, refer to the Alignment chapter of the AMS 2140
Machinery Health Analyzer User Guide.
