ParAlign
Roll Alignment Services

ParAlign <br>Roll Alignment Services </br>

ParAlign Roll Alignment Services from the innovators of inertial alignment.

ParAlign is a unique, non-optical measurement method using inertial technology designed to measure the parallelism of rolls in production installations in the paper, print, converting, steel industries, and web-handling/roll to roll transfer processes.

Misalignment in rolling machinery can lead to wasted material, inconsistent or low-quality products, and excess machine wear. Properly aligned rolls perform better, create more consistent products, and reduce wear and tear on machinery.

Three-ring laser gyroscopes enable the ParAlign to take measurements in three-dimensional space (roll, pitch, and yaw). No line of sight is required, which creates consistent, reproducible results.

Types of Services

The Pruftechnik Services team offers two types of roll alignment utilizing the ParAlign gyroscopic technology:
the ParAlign Service and the Peak RGA Service.

The ParAlign Service is performed with the ParAlign alone. When performing the service, the device is placed on a roll and swept a minimum of 20 degrees about the roll's circumference. The ParAlign can be positioned anywhere along the circumference of the roll as long as there is enough clearance to complete a proper measurement using the SWEEP method. This flexibility allows for rolls to be measured on the top, bottom, or sides, depending on which is most accessible.The measurement takes about 30 seconds, and results are instantly transmitted wirelessly to a laptop.

The Peak Roll and Geometrical Alignment (RGA) Service is a total alignment solution combining the ParAlign with laser trackers to align rolls and their surrounding structures in the shortest time possible—while producing accurate results and instant visual reports. No other roll alignment method combines gyroscopic and laser tracker technology.

Frequently Asked Questions

Open All

Why roll alignment?

Well-aligned rolls—that is, rolls which are parallel to each other—improve product quality and increase productivity through higher machine availability and production output.

The parallelism of rolls is critical when machines run at high speeds or when rolls are in close proximity.

Why should rolls be parallel?

Why use ParAlign?

How does the ParAlign work?

What is the smallest roll the ParAlign can measure?

Does accuracy depend on the location of the roll?

How are reports made available?

Is Peak RGA a tool or service?

Do you need optics to set up your measurements?
