A user’s handbook
Dear Customer,
Welcome to the world of intelligent shaft alignment using ROTALIGN Ultra iS Shaft,
another innovative product from PRÜFTECHNIK, the inventors of laser shaft alignment.
This handbook sets out to help the instrument user work through the instrument with
the required ease. It is the standard work for both the ‘Advanced Shaft’ and ‘Standard
Shaft’ versions, and meant to be a quick learning tool that hopefully should make
compelling reading.

ROTALIGN Ultra iS is industry’s first intelligent alignment system. The system combines
the features of the tested and proven ROTALIGN Ultra iS computer together with
those of the next generation sensALIGN sensor and laser. ROTALIGN Ultra iS computer
features a 5.7-inch (145 mm) colour TFT sunlight readable full VGA screen, a fast
processor, an alphanumeric keyboard with strategically placed navigation keys that
handles all data entry functions, a long lasting rechargeable battery, handy on-screen
context menu, a remarkable file storage capacity and computer LEDs that give the
instant status of the alignment condition and laser beam adjustment.
sensALIGN sensor possesses an unlimited detector range making it possible to measure
grossly misaligned machines or those with long couplings. Both sensor and laser
incorporate Micro Electro Mechanical System (MEMs) allowing the measurement of
component rotational angle and vibration. sensALIGN sensor incorporates Bluetooth
for wireless transmission of measurement data to the system computer. Both sensor
and laser are powered using Lithium Polymer (Li-Po) rechargeable batteries.
In its completeness, the system handles the alignment of drive trains comprising up to
14 machines and includes intelligent features such as ellipse calculation, monitoring
environmental vibration, live measurement quality and suppression of coupling
backlash.
If you have any suggestions for improvement or corrections (not just to this manual,
but also for hardware), please drop us a line. We would be glad to make improve-
ments wherever possible.
We look forward to hearing from you.
