Is there a mobile app for alignment using a single table?
Thread Content
The single-table alignment method is a relatively advanced alignment technique; since manual calculations are too cumbersome and time-consuming, it is hoped to find a mobile app that can assist with these calculations directly.
I’m not sure whether you’re referring to the single-table forward alignment method commonly used domestically, or the single-table reverse alignment method adopted internationally. The single-table, one-way fitter textbooks contain detailed formulas; the calculations are indeed quite complex, and mistakes can occur if the data is entered incorrectly. The calculation formula for reverse operation with a single table is very simple; once the principle behind it is understood, measuring a few simple values is sufficient to determine the adjustment amount. I guess you have to pay to use mobile apps; I’d like a free one too, haha.
It’s on WeChat; I can add you there!
Thank you. Could you please add me on WeChat? My WeChat ID is SYB30791937, and my WeChat name is Sun Yanbo.
It refers to that type of single-gauge alignment method suitable for situations where the axial distance is large; in such cases, it is sufficient to measure the radial deviations of the two couplings separately in order to determine the spatial position of the two axes. Using formulas for calculation is too slow.
That method is called single-table radial reverse alignment; there are relevant papers available online for reference. This is the calculation method used at Zhuhai BPI, and its formulas are simple making it easy to apply. At CNOOC Shell, this method of using icons is employed to create coordinate charts; it’s a bit cumbersome, but it makes things clear and easy to interpret. Reviewing them together ensures there are no issues.
