Shaft alignment
24 October 2014
With its TKSA 11, SKF is launching the first of a new generation of shaft alignment tools.

The TKSA 11 incorporates two inductive proximity sensors within a compact and robust electronic measuring unit, which is attached to the moveable machine side, on shafts or coupling sleeves, with a reference bar being attached to the fixed machine side.
With an easy to use app, the user is guided through the measurement and correction of shaft misalignment, while a live view of the measuring unit and horizontal machine position facilitates accurate alignment.
