Easy-Laser® XT440 - Shaft alignment

The perfect tool for basic laser shaft alignment

Easy-Laser® XT440 Shaft is a member of our Generation XT alignment systems, built upon our cross-platform technology. This means you will be able to display data on a multitude of different handheld devices, including our own XT12. With XT440 you can carry out the following:

  • ​Align the machine
  • Check soft foot
  • Document and share the results

With Easy-Laser XT440 you can perform all necessary steps of shaft alignment on horizontal and vertically/flange mounted machines. The user-friendly software guides you step by step through the measurement process. ​

Use the system together with the rugged Easy-Laser XT display unit or install the free XT Alignment app on your iOS or Android device*. Whatever you choose, the intuitive user interface is the same across all platforms.

The measuring units and XT display unit are shockproof and rated both IP66 and IP67 water and dust proof. Along with long operating times, this guarantees you will be able to take on and finish even the toughest jobs. 

Unique documentation possibilities 

From the app, you can easily create and share a PDF report containing all measurement data and images. If you use the XT display unit it has a built-in 13MP camera. The XT display unit can also be equipped with an IR camera which allows you to add a thermal image of the machine before and after alignment.

Kundcase:Dutch XT pioneer saves time and money with XT440

Dutch industrial maintenance company Wikkelbedrijf Antes was among the first to start working with the Easy-Laser XT440 shaft alignment system. With this next generation of Easy-Laser products the company has managed to make the alignment process easier and more efficient, saving themselves and their clients time and money. Read more

[MÄTPROGRAM]

The featured programs below are the most common used with this system. Please click here for a complete overview of possibilities.
*=accessories needed

Horizontal machines

The user interface is intuitive and guide you through the measurement process. It is animated and zooms into the most important things for each step. You can save the measurements of a machine for As found and As left in the same file.

Vertical/flange mounted machines

For measurement and alignment of vertically and flange mounted machines.

Soft foot check

Alignment work begins with a soft foot check. The soft foot check ensures that the machine is resting evenly on all its feet by indicating which foot/feet should be adjusted. This is an important part of securing a reliable alignment. After the soft foot check is complete, you can go directly to the alignment program with all of the machine’s distance values saved.

Values – Shaft alignment applications

Use the M and S measuring units included to measure as with digital dial gauges, but with laser precision and the possibility to document the measurement result. Another application is to check shaft radial play (bearing play).

Belt alignment program
Belt alignment*

Using the system you can align sheaves and pulleys with digital precision. Adjustment of the machines is displayed in real time on the screen, with readings for angle and axial displacement in both the vertical and horizontal axes, as well as an adjustment value for the front or rear foot pair. The result can be documented as normal. (Requires the XT190 BTA accessory.) 

Vibration analysis*

Diagnose vibration level, unbalance, misalignment and looseness. (Requires the XT280 accessory.) 

[MÄTMETODER]

9-12-3
9-12-3

Measurement points are recorded at fixed points 9, 12 and 3 o’clock. This is the classic three-point method which can be used in most cases. The preferred method for situations where the machine to be aligned is mounted on a moving object, and it is not possible to use the inclinometers (e.g., on ships, cranes, wind turbines etc.).

EasyTurn™ function
EasyTurn™ function

Ideal method for coupled machines where you manually rotate the shafts to any position. The EasyTurn™ function allows you to begin the measurement process from anywhere on the turn. You can turn the shaft to any three positions with as little as 20° between each position to register the measurement values. An easier-to-use version of the three-point method (see 9–12–3).
