Precision - Accuracy - Repeatability
Dial indicators - a staple of any maintenance engineer's "toolbox." If it is in your toolbox, we hope it's in the protective storage case it came in when you purchased it.
​
Precision dial indicators are mechanical wonders, and come in a variety of types with varying degrees of precision and measurement capabilities. For motor shaft alignment, we suggest a plunger-type dial indicator, with a face travel of 0.100", and an overall travel of 0.250".
​
For most uses, a dial indicator with increments of 0.001" (one "mil", or 1/1000th of an inch) will provide the accuracy you need. Mechanical dial indicators can measure down to double that precision, with dial indicator faces split up in increments of 0.0005" (one-half of a mil | 5/10000ths of an inch). Digital dial indicator's accuracy can provide even higher precision.
​
For purposes of accuracy and consistency, we suggest dial indicators that provide an increment of 0.001" and a stated accuracy of +/- 0.001".
​
These are THE tool kits you need for your shaft alignment arsenal.

​The process is a simple one: start off by using our Peterson-brand alignment kits to measure the misalignment of your motor base in the horizontal plane. Then, use our SIDE-ALIGN system to accurately move your motor base back into precise alignment, according to the readout on your Alignment Manager™ Calculator. Accurate diagnosis and an accurate solution!
Portable SIDE-ALIGN sets make aligning your motors, pumps, and gear boxes quick, easy and - above all - safe, and to the tolerances you require. Eliminate the use of jack bolts, frames and heavy hammers to move your motor bases. Welcome to the 21st Century!
