Mr. Shims Shaft Alignment Training Course comes to your facility and train up to ten students per session. Mr. Shims brings in the necessary material, (training stands, manuals, alignment hardware), for this hands on class. All we need is a room, white board and overhead.
We start off the class training on the basics, Straight Edge, Feeler Gauge and Dial Indicator (Graphing). During this you will find out the importance of flat bases, pipe strain and other sources effecting the alignment.
To teach alignment we use the Indicator Reverse Method, the best way to learn what exactly is going on with the machine and motor.
Once the person finds out what is going on in Alignment we can bring out any other tools for alignment you want i.e. Lasers, and this becomes just a different though very accurate tool for alignment.
Principals first then personnel know how their alignment tools work and what exactly they are doing. Once they learn this then these tools become diagnostic when using.
Our instructor Dan Munday has been doing alignment work for 22 years and has been training companies in shaft alignment, straightness, flatness, spindle, parallel and roll alignment since 1985.
When was the last time your personnel were able to sit down, learn and do alignment in a relaxed atmosphere? Want to go in the field for part of the lesson? No problem.
We can train in all aspects of alignment with any equipment you have or plan on getting.
