Shaft alignment is a specialized technical skill that involves using measurement instruments and relies on the technician's experience to achieve optimal results on equipment such as pumps, compressors, or turbines. This course will equip participants with comprehensive knowledge and practical skills in shaft alignment, helping them address misalignment issues in rotating machinery. The emphasis will be on analyzing, identifying, and correcting root causes of misalignment, imbalance, and vibration to ensure smooth operation and improve machine performance.
Throughout the course, real-world problems and case studies from engineering practice will be discussed and resolved through hands-on workshops.
Key topics of this Energy training course include:
- The importance of selecting the right couplings
- Guidelines for proper coupling installation: mounting and dismounting
- Common coupling issues and potential failures
- The impact of shaft alignment on machine performance
- Effective methods and techniques for measuring shaft alignment
- The consequences of misalignment on pump and compressor operations
