PENTALIGN - Measuring perpendicularity and parallelism of axes and planes

Product catalog summary

Overview
PENTALIGN® is a precision tool designed for measuring the perpendicularity and parallelism of axes and planes in various industrial applications. It is particularly useful for components such as wind tower segment flanges, spindles, base plates, ship rudder carrier plans, propellers, gearbox shaft casings, and press surfaces.

Specifications
The PENTALIGN® system includes a high accuracy rotatable pentaprism that, when used with an external laser source, creates a precise perpendicular laser plane. It features a 5-axis fine adjustment base with built-in magnets for flexible fixation, and an optional offset table for large adjustments. The system is compact and lightweight, making it versatile for different mounting options.

Procedures
The device allows for precise adjustment on five axes: vertical and horizontal offset, vertical, horizontal, and axial angle. The centering sensor ensures accurate alignment of the pentaprism's rotating axis to the reference laser, minimizing deviation of the outgoing beam. This setup is crucial for accurate flatness measurement of perpendicular surfaces.

Key Features

5-axis fine adjustment base
360° axis rotation
Built-in magnets for easy fixation
Optional 2-axis high accuracy centering sensor
Compact and light housing

Applications
PENTALIGN® is ideal for measuring perpendicularity between spindles and base plates of drilling machines or ship rudder carrier plans. It also determines surface parallelism for wind tower segment flanges, gearbox shaft casings, press surfaces, and ship propellers.

Additional Information
The system is complemented by LEVALIGN® laser and ROTALIGN® Ultra computer, along with ALIGNMENT CENTER PC software, providing a comprehensive solution for surface parallelism measurement.

PENTALIGN - Measuring perpendicularity and parallelism of axes and planes-2

Measuring perpendicularity and parallelism of axes and planes ROTALIGN® sensor PENTALIGN ® is a high accuracy rotatable pentaprism. Used in combination with an external laser source it creates a precise perpendicular laser plane to the incident beam. Furthermore the centering sensor enables the accurate adjustment of the pentaprism rotating axis to the reference laser in order to minimise the deviation of the outgoing beam. The device can be adjusted with high precision on 5 axes: vertical and horizontal offset, vertical, horizontal and axial angle. Its small size and various fixation possibilities...
