This laser-based shaft alignment tool from FLUKE
Overview
The Fluke 831 Laser Shaft Alignment Tool (Part# 5346724) is a laser-based system for precise shaft alignment based on the coaxial, reflected single-laser measurement principle. The product is supplied as a complete measurement kit with a handheld unit, sensor unit, reflector/prism, and mounting equipment. The Fluke 831 offers high-resolution measurements and integrated wireless communication.Features and construction
- Coaxial, reflected measurement principle with semiconductor laser diode (wavelength 630–680 nm).
- Detector resolution: 1 µm; angular resolution: 10 µRad; typical measurement error (average): < 2%.
- Handheld unit with 8" (203.1 mm) TFT display, resolution 1920 × 1200 and integrated Wi‑Fi.
- The kit includes sensor laser, reflector/prism, chain-type mounting bracket, support posts, USB cables, power supplies, and carrying case.
- Environmental protection: handheld unit IP68; reflector/prism IP67.
Typical applications
- Performing precise shaft alignment for coupled shafts using reflected single-laser measurement technique.
- Measuring and correcting horizontal, vertical, and angular misalignment using guided measurement sequences and live mode.
- Alignment across various coupling types such as short flex coupling, spacer shaft, single plane coupling, and uncoupled shafts (selection of coupling type is controlled in the device's software).
