L-702/L-702SP Lathe & Turning Center Alignment System

Product catalog summary
Overview
The L-702 and L-702SP are advanced spindle alignment systems designed for lathes and turning centers, offering high accuracy and efficiency in alignment tasks. These systems help reduce tooling costs and scrap rates while enhancing productivity.

Features
  • Mounts in the spindle to project its axis of rotation up to 100 feet.
  • L-702SP includes a perpendicular scan plane for measuring squareness.
  • High resolution: .00001 in. for center and angular measurements.
  • Real-time 4-axis measurement data.
  • Lathe9 software for error correction and alignment reporting.
  • Laser operates for up to 8 hours on a full charge.

Applications
  • Lathes and turning centers
  • Cylindrical OD/ID grinders
  • Multi-turn and rotary-dial machines
  • Transfer-line machines

Alignment Capabilities
  • Flatness and straightness of guideways
  • Parallelism of headstock to tailstock or saddle guideways
  • 4-axis simultaneous alignment of headstock rotation axis
  • Squareness of cross-slide, saddle, or multi-turn milling axes

Benefits
  • High accuracy improves part quality with less than .0001 in. alignment precision.
  • Reduces alignment time by up to 70%, minimizing downtime.
  • Quick setup allows for alignment data collection in under an hour.
  • Built-in 6-step alignment procedure simplifies complex tasks.

Components
  • L-702 and L-702SP lasers with vertical and horizontal adjustments.
  • T-261A 4-Axis Spindle Target for real-time alignment display.
  • A-1519-2.4ZB Single Axis Scan Target for measuring squareness.
  • R-358 Computer Interface for data resolution and real-time updates.

Specifications
  • Laser power: CLASS II, < 0.9 mw
  • Operating range: Up to 100 feet
  • Adjustment resolution: .0001”/ft
  • Beam diameter: .24 in
  • Power supply: 3.4V lithium-ion rechargeable battery

Case Study
An automotive manufacturer significantly reduced tool breakage and saved $1.5 million annually by using the L-700 Spindle Alignment System, improving production efficiency.

L-702/L-702SP Lathe & Turning Center Alignment System-4

One of the most important calibration factors for lathes and turning-type machines is the alignment of spindle axis of rotation (AOR) to the tailstock guideways or the saddle guideways. The other critical calibration factor is the alignment of the spindle’s AOR to the tailstock, sub-spindle, turret or tool holder. To check the alignment, the L-702/L-702SP is inserted right into the spindle chuck and aligned to the spindle’s AOR, using the T-261 4-Axis Target mounted in the tailstock or T-230 Target Stand. The L-702 laser projects the spindle’s AOR out to 100 feet (30 m) and becomes the reference...
