Shaft Alignment:
The GO Wind measures the need for horizontal alignment, but its real power is in helping correct misalignment. The dual sensors allow the GO Wind to maintain the true position of the shafts, even as unintended movements are experienced during the alignment process. The benefit of this “true position sensing” is that it allows the user to complete the alignment using a Verti-Zontal™ move adjusting in both the vertical and horizontal planes without re-measuring between moves. A Verti-Zontal™ move alignment is a great time saver since alignments can usually be completed in just one or two tries.
The GO Wind also comes with a number of utility software programs to make the alignment process easier. These include SoftcheckTM to control for soft foot conditions and Target Values, which automatically adjusts the readings to compensate for pre-determined alignment targets based on thermal growth data.
The same power and ease of use is offered in an application for the alignment of flange mounted machinery.
Utilities:
The SoftcheckTM routine helps control for soft foot conditions. The GO Wind allows the user to go directly from SoftcheckTM to measuring shaft alignment.
Allows the system to compensate for pre-determined alignment targets. The user can establish targets using this function and then go directly to shaft alignment.
