Highly accurate alignment and 3D measurement

For optimal positioning and reliable performance of machines and drive trains.
Challenges
You may recognise this

When machinery is aligned incorrectly, it can lead to vibrations, energy loss and increased wear, which in the long term can result in malfunctions or even breakdowns. EMHA offers alignment and 3D surveying services to keep installations in top condition.

Precise alignment of machinery and installations is vital for the efficient and sustainable operation of rotating machinery. Alignment focuses on the optimal adjustment of mechanical components within existing or new installations. The aim of correct alignment is to minimise energy loss, reduce friction and wear, increase machine reliability and extend service life.

Solutions
How we help

Laser alignment

Precise measurement and correction of misalignment errors in rotating machinery and complete systems.

3D measurements

For the quick and accurate recording of geometry, positions and deviations from the design or reference.

Inspection during installation and overhaul

For verifying the fit, flatness, concentricity and correct positioning of components and machines.

Support with (re)placement

For returning machines to their original or designed position with high precision.

EMHA supports projects in sectors including the maritime sector, offshore, petrochemicals, heavy industry and civil engineering. We are commissioned to carry out precise 3D measurements, dimensional checks and alignment work on components such as propeller shafts, gearboxes, motors, pumps, turbines, compressors, generators and infrastructure structures. The correct position, geometry and mutual alignment of components are essential for the reliable operation of the installation.

The benefits

A precise 3D measurement is at the basis of correct assembly, alignment, overhaul or maintenance shutdown. By identifying deviations at an early stage, corrections can be carried out in good time and failure costs are minimised. Correct alignment subsequently results in less wear, lower vibration levels, reduced energy loss and greater reliability and availability of installations. This contributes to better control of quality, lead times and maintenance costs throughout the entire lifespan of the installation.

Want to know more about Alignment & 3D surveying?

Yes, the measurement and alignment services are used in various project phases, including installation, maintenance, refit and new builds.

For applications including motors, pumps, turbines, compressors, gearboxes, shafts, generators and structures where precise dimensions and positioning are required.

3D scans are saved as point clouds. For both laser and conventional alignments, we record the measurements in a report for verification, quality assurance and follow-up actions.

Including the maritime, offshore, petrochemical, heavy industry and civil engineering sectors.

These include flatness, concentricity, ovality, parallelism, perpendicularity, straightness, diameters, volumes, surface areas and geometric positions.
