Pre-Alignment Steps
Acoem USA technical trainer James Otremba walks us through the pre-alignment steps. Performing these steps before any and every alignment (regardless of what tool you are using) will lay the groundwork for a successful precision shaft alignment. Before beginning this process, always remember to lockout the machine and take appropriate safety precautions.
