ABSTRACT:
The specificatin discloses several methods of measuring the alignment of coupled shafts preferably by suspending gauges over the coupled shafts and taking gauge readings, measuring certain distances of the gauges from predetermined points such as the coupling centerline, inserting those values in given equations and solving the equations. The solutions are then compared to a predetermined range of acceptable values to determine if the coupled shafts are in an acceptable alignment.
