4. Mounting the units
The TKBA 21 and 31 are equipped with powerful
magnets, allowing the operator to mount the system
on almost any pulley or sprocket face.
Mount the units on the pulley or bracket faces to be
aligned.
•
One unit should be mounted onto the pulley or
sprocket to be moved or adjusted, facing the
other unit, so that the lasers can be projected
on each other reference lines.
•
The other laser emitting unit should be
mounted on the stationary pulley or sprocket,
also facing the reference lines of the first unit.
The user must determine which pulley is movable
and which is stationary.
The movable pulley or sprocket is often the smallest
one, and is often mounted on the motor shaft. In
some cases both pulleys or sprockets and shafts
may need to be adjusted to achieve the desired
alignment.
For non-ferrous pulleys or sprocket, it is possible to
use a small bar clamp (G clamp).

5. Power on
To turn the laser lines on, use the main red switches
located on the front of the transmitter units.
6. Alignment condition check
The laser lines on the both units' reference
lines show the vertical angle misalignment,
parallel misalignment or offset. Horizontal angle
misalignment is indicated by the offset position
of the laser line on one side only with a constant
distance.
Before aligning the pulleys or sprockets, it is
important that the pulleys or sprockets are
mounted correctly on the shafts and that the shafts
are straight. Buckled pulleys will have a detrimental
effect on the alignment quality. Adjust one (or both)
pulley machine(s) step by step until both laser lines
hit the reference line of the opposite laser unit.
The laser line emitted from each laser unit will now
appear on the opposite unit. The pattern will vary
depending on the type of misalignment.
