ShaftAlign eliminates shaft misalignment in real time, using fiber optic sensors and adaptive hardware to keep your rotating machinery running without wear or downtime.
Shafts and bearings are aligned at standstill, but heat, load, and vibration cause alignment to drift the moment machinery starts operating. Every industry with rotating equipment pays the same price.
Bearings, gearboxes, and motors are set with shims that cannot adapt to changing conditions, locking in misalignment from the very first revolution.
Load concentrates at one end of each bearing, leaving most of the surface unloaded, a breeding ground for vibration, premature failure, and costly unplanned stoppages.
Inspection cycles force costly shutdowns across maritime and industrial plants. Better alignment extends these intervals and reduces unplanned outages significantly.
ShaftAlign combines fiber optic sensing, proprietary hardware, and real-time control software to maintain perfect shaft alignment under all operating conditions, without stopping the machine.
High-resolution fiber optic sensors continuously measure shaft deviation in all planes, detecting misalignment down to fractions of a millimetre in real time.
Our patented bearing actuators adjust position in all six degrees of freedom, enabling corrections that conventional shim-based alignment simply cannot achieve.
The intelligent control system responds automatically to changes in temperature, load, and operating state, continuously optimising alignment without manual intervention.
A closed-loop system that monitors, computes, and corrects, continuously, throughout every operating cycle.
Fiber optic sensors mounted along the shaft detect real-time position deviations with sub-millimetre precision.
The control system interprets sensor data, modelling shaft behaviour against temperature, speed, load, and process conditions.
ShaftAligner actuators adjust each bearing in all degrees of freedom, restoring optimal alignment within seconds.
Custom dashboards provide operators with complete alignment history, predictive maintenance alerts, and compliance documentation.
ShaftAlign's technology is industry-agnostic, any application with rotating machinery and bearing-supported shafts can benefit. Misalignment costs every sector the same way: wear, vibration, unplanned stops, and shortened asset life.
Propeller shaft alignment in all sea states and load conditions. Reduce dry-dock intervals and eliminate bearing failures on cargo, ferry, and naval vessels.
Paper machines, refiners, and chippers run 24/7 under heavy loads. Continuous alignment prevents unplanned stops that cost mills hundreds of thousands per hour.
Rolling mills and rotary kilns operate under extreme thermal and mechanical loads. Precise alignment extends roll and bearing life and improves product quality.
Steam and gas turbine shafts, generator rotors, and pump trains demand micron-level precision. Any deviation translates directly into efficiency losses and shortened maintenance intervals.
SAG mills, ball mills, and conveyor drives are among the largest rotating machines in industry. A single unplanned stop costs hundreds of thousands. Continuous alignment monitoring prevents it.
Pumps, compressors, and turbine-driven trains in refineries and offshore platforms require perfect alignment for safe, efficient operation. Misalignment here carries safety implications beyond cost.
