Incorrect alignment of belts and shafts are among the most common causes of unplanned machine downtime.

Correct alignment considerably increases the life of rotating machine parts. The highly qualified F’IS employees are able to reduce to a minimum the increased vibration levels that are induced by deformations in the shafts, machine bodies, foundations etc. They position drive components such as motors, couplings, gearboxes etc. such that the drive operates with as little wear as possible.

The FIS experts locate and eliminate misalignments on machines using two or more coupled shafts and belts. In addition to detailed analysis of causes, the F’IS service includes alignment of belts and shafts on pumps, ventilators, compressors, electrical machinery etc. as well as the detection and correction of positional deviations in belts and shafts using F’IS vibration and laser measurement devices. F’IS also offers various measuring devices that can be used personally to align defective elements.

With the aid of the F’IS alignment service, you can avoid unplanned machine downtime due to misalignment. You thereby considerably increase plant availability while reducing your maintenance costs.
