Product News: Two New Bore Alignment Accessories from Pinpoint Laser Systems

Accommodate bore diameters as large as 3 feet and as small as 2.5 in.

(Pinpoint Laser Systems: Peabody, MA) -- Pinpoint Laser Systems is introducing two new bore alignment accessories for the popular Laser Microgage line. Developed for a large shipyard installing drive shafts, these new mounts can accommodate bore diameters as large as 3 feet and as small as 2.5 in. The Laser Microgage projects a visible reference beam that extends out to 180 feet and is accurate to within 0.0005 in. for precision shaft and bore placement and alignment. In addition to shipyards, this newest precision bore alignment system is ideal for machinery builders, utilities, aircraft and aerospace, medical, plastics and rubber, and many other industrial applications.

The new bore mounts are made of solid aluminum components with stainless steel hardware to provide years of reliable use in tough industrial environments. The mounts are fully adjustable and easily modified for both internal and external bore mounting, as well as flange mounting. The mount supports a digital laser receiver that views the laser reference beam and provides precise information on the location of the bore tube or flange assembly. A digital display provides an accurate readout of the measurement location allowing the user to quickly understand what adjustments need to be made in the bore position and orientation. The Laser Microgage is precise, compact, and easy to use, allowing workers to easily make precise measurements and adjustments on their own equipment, right on the factory floor or out in the field.
