Чему вы научитесь

  • Explain how misalignment and unbalance shorten the life of bearings, seals and couplings
  • Distinguish angular from parallel (offset) misalignment and recognise their vibration signatures
  • Compare alignment methods — straightedge, dial indicators, laser — and their accuracy trade-offs
  • Carry out pre-alignment checks for soft foot, pipe strain and runout before correcting alignment
  • Apply thermal growth offsets and speed-based tolerances when setting alignment targets
  • Describe the causes and symptoms of unbalance and the concept of single-plane field balancing
