Alignment Calculation
Alignment Calculation
Draw a simple diagram in you alignment sheet to show how the dial indicators are fixed, distances
of inner and outer boards (IB, OB). Plane A is the position of indicator tip at adjustable machine
while plane S is at stationary machine.
Stationary Machine
Plane (S)
Top reading + bottom reading (must equal to) Left reading + Right reading
The allowable difference should not exceed 0.001
Rim readings check for Adjustable Machine:
Rim readings check for Stationary Machine:
T+P= (+5) + 0 = +0.005
T+P= 0 + (-0.019) = - 0.019
L+R= (-0.005) + 0.011 = +0.006
L+R= -0.006 + (- 0.012) = -0.018
Calculations to be done:
In these calculations you will cancel the amount of indicator bar sag and zero the (Top and Left)
readings at S plane, and (Bottom and Left) readings at A plane.

Calculations to be done
To get the net results for all calculations you have to Zeros Top and Right sides as following:
Net Reading at Bottom = (B-T)/2 = (+0.004 - (-0.010))/2 = +0.007
Net Reading at Left = (L-R)/2 = (-0.008 - (+0.010))/2 = - 0.009
