Pump alignment issue
Thread Content
When the outer diameters of the couplings satisfy S1+S3=S2+S4, it should indicate that they are aligned. So if we add the values in opposite directions, do we use the absolute value of the negative number? I’m confused
Simply put, for wheel alignment, find the four points on the outer circle – top, bottom, left, and right – and use the readings from the gauge to determine the differences; adjustments are made through addition and subtraction of positive and negative values. If you don’t prefer working with positive and negative numbers, then adjust the top and bottom positions first based on how you read the gauge. As for adjusting the left and right positions, whether the gauge is mounted on the driven shaft or the driving shaft makes a difference in the readings and judgments. .
Could you please help me answer the question above?
S1+S3=S2+S4. For example, if s1 is 0.04 and s3 is -0.05, then is s1+s3 equal to -0.01 or 0.09? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
0.01,,, it’s not about adding the absolute value; you’re overcomplicating things
There’s a missing negative sign; my apologies
The original poster can simulate and think about the principle; once they figure it out, they’ll understand!
I hope what everyone says will be helpful to the original poster. . . .
