High-precision system for aligning V-belt pulleys

Belt-driven machines must be precisely aligned to achieve the longest possible service life for belts and pulleys while reducing system vibration levels and energy costs.

The user-friendly SKF TKBA 40 belt alignment system enables precise alignment of the grooves on V-belt pulleys. It can compensate for vertical and horizontal misalignment as well as parallel misalignment.

The system consists of two components – a laser transmitter and a receiver.

With its powerful magnets and wedge guides for the pulley grooves, the TKBA 40 can be installed quickly and easily.

• Quick and easy attachment thanks to powerful magnets
• Simplified alignment process
• Alignment of a wide range of V-belt pulleys (four wedge guide sizes included in delivery)
• Alignment and simultaneous adjustment of belt tension
• Alignment of the grooves – instead of the front sides – of V-belt pulleys, thus ensuring optimum alignment of pulleys with different widths or with differently designed front surfaces

• Optional special adapter for aligning multi-profile belts, toothed belts, and sprockets
• The maximum measuring distance of 6 m is sufficient for most applications.
• Alignment using red laser diode; supplied in a robust case
• 2 AAA batteries for 20 hours of continuous operation
