ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for determining shim thicknesses used to position antifriction bearings on shafts located in recesses formed in a casing. The shafts, fitted with the bearings, are installed in the casing and located with compensating discs or shims. An apparatus plate of predetermined thickness is located between the flanges of two casing halves, split perpendicular to the shaft axis. An axial force measuring cell is fitted on the antifriction bearing and the two casing halves are clamped together with a predetermined load. Axial forces produced by the clamping action of the casing on the shafts are measured during operation and correlated with a predetermined, desired axial force by a computer. The optimum thickness of the compensating discs for the individual shafts is calculated from data supplied to the computer.
