Alignment

Precision alignment is essential during the installation, maintenance, repair, and upgrading of machinery. The type of alignment dictates the precision instruments used, such as laser trackers, total stations, photogrammetry, or precision levels. Leveraging the real-time measurement capabilities of these tools, we can swiftly and precisely align components down to 0.025mm. This real-time alignment ensures criteria like level to gravity, flatness, straightness, and concentricity, among others, are met.

At Dimensional Metrology Services, our expertise spans a wide range of precision alignments. From automotive and aerospace jigs, fixtures, and assembly tools to shipbuilding, antennas, and railways, as well as conveyors, cranes, mining equipment, and mills across various industries.
