SKF TKBA21 Belt Alignment Tool

The tool has two components: a laser-transmitting unit and a receiver unit. Each is attached quickly and easily - using a powerful magnet - to the inside or outside face of a belt pulley or chain sprocket. The TKBA 21 can be applied to most machines that use V belts, banded belts, and ribbed belts - as well as those with chain sprockets. A laser line is projected from the transmitter to the receiver - which is mounted on the opposite pulley. The tool then corrects for vertical angle, horizontal angle, and parallel misalignment - including combinations of all three.

•Two laser transmitter/receiver units
•Uses red laser diodes and can be used for distances up to 3 m (10 ft).
•Fast, easy attachment - using powerful magnets.
•Simplified alignment process
•Simultaneous adjustment of tension and alignment
•Applicable to most machines using V belts, banded belts, ribbed belts - as well as chain sprockets.

Typical applications:
SKF Belt Alignment Tools are commonly used in power plants, recycling facilities, chemical plants, and food & beverage production.

Belt drives are found in a variety of applications, including HVAC, pump installations, paper mills, flour mills, lathe machines, milling machines and conveyors. Sprocket drives are often used in agricultural machinery, compressors, and engine camshafts.
