SKF Shaft Alignment Tool TKSA-31

The SKF Shaft Alignment Tool TKSA-31 is SKF’s most affordable solution for easy laser shaft alignment. The ergonomic display unit with touch screen makes the instrument very easy to use and the built-in machine library helps storing alignment reports for multiple machines. Large sized laser detectors in the measuring heads reduce the need for pre-alignments and the embedded soft foot tool helps establish the foundation for a successful alignment. Additional functions are live view and automatic measurement. They support fast and effective alignment tasks and make the SKF Shaft Alignment Tool TKSA-31 an innovative laser shaft alignment tool that is affordable for almost every budget.

Features & benefits
  • Easy measurements can be performed by using the well-known three position measurement (9-12-3 o’clock) with additional positioning flexibility of 40° around each measurement position.
  • High affordability is achieved by focussing on the standard shaft alignment process and essential functions to allow quick and effective shaft alignments.
  • “Automatic measurement” enables hands-free measurements by detecting the position of the heads and only taking a measurement when the heads are in the right position.
  • Automatic reports are generated after each alignment and can be customised with notes about the application. All reports can be exported as pdf files.
  • Live view supports intuitive measurements and facilitates horizontal and vertical machine position corrections.
  • The machine library gives an overview of all machines and alignment reports. It simplifies the machine identification and improves the alignment workflow.
  • The TKSA 31 is supplied in a sturdy SKF carrying case
  • Extensive range of accessories is available.
