Wind Turbines Vestas/GA
Systems for shaft alignment with locked rotor
Our two special systems contain brackets that fit the specific gearbox/generator flange interfaces of many turbine variants made by leading manufacturers:
System VT
This shaft alignment system consists of three different kits (sold separately): one general installation kit, one supplement service kit for use on smaller turbines, plus one upgrade kit. The installation kit can be delivered without the measuring units and display unit etc. (then called Mechanical bracket kit), if you already own those. For use with both E and XT series measuring units. The complete system fits all Vestas turbines.
System GA
This solution includes a kit with display unit and measuring units (E-series) and brackets to measure with the coupling in place, as well as a bracket kit (for both E and XT series)for measurement with the coupling removed. The kits are sold separately or as a package. Fits Siemens Gamesa turbines.
For more details, please see the brochure for each system under the tab Downloads.
Shaft alignment with rotating shaft
To perform shaft alignment with the coupling in place the shaft needs to rotate, for example via servo drive, and to be stopped with the break. Measurement program EasyTurn (which is included in all Easy-Laser systems as standard) is perfect in this case. It requires a minimum of shaft rotation to determine the alignment condition.
To perform alignment with a rotating shaft we offer two standard systems:
Easy-Laser XT660 Shaft SG1: A version of the XT660 shaft alignment system with brackets for use on Siemens Gamesa turbines of different models.
Easy-Laser XT660 Shaft WMB: A version of the XT660 shaft alignment system with brackets for use on multiple brands and models.
