The most trusted and widely embraced guide in the field, the fourth edition includes improved illustrations and photographs in color, updated information on the tools used to measure and correct misalignment conditions, newly discovered vibration patterns observed due to shaft misalignment, and covers newly developed shaft alignment standards. This book covers every aspect of alignment procedures, methods, mechanical and laser tooling, and alignment patents, explains the basics of vibration analysis, rotor balancing, flexible and rigid couplings, foundations, and baseplates, and contains helpful appendices supplying sample data cards, installation guides, fastener torque values, questionnaires, and informative web links.
