SKF TKSA 40 Shaft Alignment Tool
The SKF TKSA 40 Shaft Alignment Tool allows results to be stored and shared. The TKSA 40 is intuitive in operation, thanks to its animated graphical interface. Not only is it quick and easy to use, but alignment results can be stored and shared using a USB cable via the PC. Compared to traditional methods, the shaft alignment process is greatly simplified; just follow the instructions on the screen to make a perfect alignment.

- Intuitive: Animated graphical interface on a 4 inch back-lit screen and alphanumeric key functions simplify the whole process
- Alignment actions displayed: Clear “real–time” coupling and feet values, given during the alignment process, makes alignment corrections quick and easy
- Built-in alignment recommendation: Pre and user definable tolerance tables greatly simplify assessment of the alignment
- Alignment data sharing: Alignment settings and results can be stored to the internal memory and downloaded via USB cable to a PC. Files are easily shared with others without the need of special software.
- Soft foot check: “Soft foot” function helps check if the machine is standing evenly on all feet; an essential check for good shaft alignment
- Easy pre–alignment: For machines that are grossly misaligned, the laser lines and scales enable rapid pre–alignment
- Fast measuring unit positioning: Measuring units are positioned fast and easy, by using the built-in spirit levels
- Global use: Language free menus and user selectable measurement units (mm or inch) facilitate use globally
- Easy for all users: A quick start guide and intuitive menus allows virtually any technician to quickly be familiar with the process. Full multi-lingual instructions are supplied on a CD
