Easy-Laser® D660 Turbine

Turbine Measurement

The Easy-Laser® D660 Turbine system is used for straightness measurements of bearing journals and diaphragms, where there are bearing halves with different diameters, primarily in turbines. Compressors are another application. Resolution 0.001 mm [0.05 mils]. It is a simple setup and measuring procedure with a measurement distance up to 40 m [132 feet]. The system automatically calculates the bores’ positions in relation to each other both horizontally and vertically. Easy-Laser® Turbine systems are available in four configurations designed to meet different requirements (D660, D662, D663, D664) and are delivered in a waterproof case with castors for easy handling. Read more about these configurations in the D660 Turbine system brochure under the Downloads tab.

Easy-Laser® D660 Turbine Programs

The Easy-Laser® D660 Turbine system comes with 27 programs and functions for your measurement and (belt & shaft) alignment needs. 

Horizontal - For the alignment of horizontal machines by the 9-12-3 o’clock method.
 

Soft Foot - With this program you can check that the machine is properly resting on all feet and will show which foot should be corrected (if necessary).
 

Thermal Growth Compensation - Compensates for difference in thermal growth between machines. This is a sub-program in the machine train program.
 

Tolerance Check - Checks the offset and angle values towards a selected tolerance. Shows graphically when the alignment is within tolerance.
 

Measurement Value Filter - Advanced electronic filter function for accurate measurement results, even in bad measuring conditions like air turbulence and vibration.
 

EasyTurn™ - For the alignment of horizontal machines. Allows complete measurement with only 40° rotation of the shafts.
  Video

Cardan - Shows angular errors and adjustment value on cardan-shaft-coupled/centre-offset machines. (Requires accessory fixtures.)
 

Vertical - For measurement of vertical and flange-mounted machines.
 

Machine Train - For the alignment of between two and ten machines in line (nine couplings). The entire alignment can be followed live on the screen.
 

Reflock™ - Any pair of feet can be locked/set as a reference. Sub-function.
 

Offset and Angle - Shows centre offset and angular error between two shafts, for example. Also suitable for dynamic measurements.
 

Values - Shows live readings from the S- and M-unit. Can be used for shaft alignment, straightness measurement and dynamic measurement. Up to four detectors can be connected in series and be zeroed individually.
 

Vibrometer - Shows vibration level in “mm/s” or “inch/s”, and bearing condition value in “g”. The measurement complies with vibration standard ISO10816-3. (Requires accessory Vibrometer probe D283.)
 

BTA Digital - For alignment of belt and chain drives. (Requires accessories BTA Digital transmitter and detector unit.)
 

Straightness - For quick and easy straightness measurement with predefined measurement positions. For machine foundations, shafts, bearing journals, machine tools, etc. Can handle up to 150 measuring points with two zero points.
 

Straightness Plus - Versatile program with advanced functions. Measurement points can be added, deleted or remeasured anytime during the measurement. The reference line can be offset set. For use as described above.
 

Flatness - Program to measure flatness/twist of (for example) machine foundations, machine tables, etc. Can handle up to 300 measuring points with three zero points.
 

Squareness - For measurement of squareness in machines and installations.
 

Parallelism - For measurement of parallelism between rolls, machine ends, etc. Can handle up to 150 rolls/measurement objects. The base line or any roll may be used as a reference. Every object can be individually named.
 

Parallelism Plus - Versatile program with advanced functions. Measurement objects can be added, deleted or remeasured anytime during the measurement. Includes baseline measurement function. For use as described above.
 

Spindle Direction - For measuring the direction in which machine spindles in machine tools, drilling machines, etc., point.

Center of Circle Plus - Versatile program with advanced functions. Measurement points can be added, deleted or remeasured anytime during the measurement. The reference line can be offset set. For use as described above.
 

Half Circle - Readings are taken at three positions, for example 9, 6 and 3. Allows varying bore diameters. To be used together with the Turbine system.
 

Half Circle Plus - Versatile program with advanced functions. Measurement points can be added, deleted or remeasured anytime during the measurement. The reference line can be offset set. For use as described above.
 

Plumbline - With this program you can measure plumb (vertical) and straightness of turbine and generator shafts, for example.
 

Flange - For flatness measurement of flanges and circular planes, slewing ring bearings for example. Can measure up to 300 points, measurements can be taken on the inner and/or the outer circle. Three zero points at 120° pitch are computed by the system.
 

Easy-Laser® D660 Turbine Specifications

Easy-Laser® D660 Turbine Expandability

Expandability protects your investment for the future

Easy-Laser® is a safe investment. We are able to offer turnkey systems for specific measurements, but in truth Easy-Laser® can be expanded, combined and upgraded to suit any of your measurement needs, now or in the future. Who knows how your operations will develop or what your measurement needs will be? As an example of expandability, all our geometric measurement systems can be upgraded with equipment for shaft alignment. You can also, for example, add turbine equipment to the Linebore system, or BTA Digital for belt & chain alignment to systems D505 and D525, to name but a few.

What you can measure is always a combination of hardware and software. If you choose to start with system D450 or D505 (which have fewer measurement programs) you can later upgrade these with software that is found in our more advanced systems. The versatility of the Easy-Laser® systems make your investment cost effective. Quite simply an assured choice.

The Easy-Laser® systems can be expanded as necessary: Add (A) software, (B) extra brackets, (C) laser transmitters/detectors as well as (D) other accessories and specially adapted brackets to expand the areas of use. 

                                                                                                                                                                                                Easy-Laser Expandability

NOTE! The D-series and E-series detectors and display units can only be used within its own product series.

NOTE! The Easy-Laser® D550 Extreme™ system is not expandable for work in potentially explosive environments with other laser transmitters, detectors etc. in the same way as our other measurement systems. This is because of the certification always required for ATEX/Ex systems. However, accessories are available in the form of brackets etc. that are not covered by the ATEX requirements.
