Coupling Alignment

Lock out / Tag out
Everytime



Shaft alignment means:
Positioning two or more machines so that their rotational centerlines are collinear at the coupling point under operating conditions.
Collinear means two lines that are positioned as if they were one line. Collinear as used in alignment means two or more centerlines of rotation with no offset or angularity between them.

Text Box: Rotating axis must be collinear during operation
