Part of the X-Series™ Laser Shaft Alignment systems, these are the most precise and advanced laser alignment systems on the market.
Overview
The X-660 is a complete shaft alignment laser that features the advanced L-780 Dual-Fan Laser, T-1280 3-Axis Target, A-970 shaft v-brackets, rugged 10” tablet, and heavy-duty shipping case. This tool features a Build Your Own (BYO) app selector. This allows the user to choose apps based on their needs.
The X-770 offers the same hardware as the X-660 but includes a Loaded App software license and more!
For over 50 years Hamar has provided highly accurate alignment systems to a variety of industries. 30 years ago, they developed the world’s first 4-axis shaft alignment system. All their years of experience have gone into the design of the X-660 and X-770 wireless 3-axis systems. This makes it easy to use and the most accurate. High-res PSD technology and the 60-point sensor linearization reduces the error rate. When the display turns green, the motor has been aligned as accurately as possible. Shim Once, Move Once™! Hamar’s technicians can remote in for tech supports saving time and money.
Hamar’s innovative technology provides a ± 8º of angular range. Most jobs are done in less time with the 2 unidirectional laser fans (2 laser fans, 1 direction) which solved the “cross-fire” lasers (2 lasers, 2 directions). With Dual-Fan™ technology’s 2 unidirectional laser fans and the 20 mm sensors, the motor doesn’t need to rough-in to get data collected. Most “cross-fire” kits don’t go beyond 5ft. (1.5m), whereas these tools allow the user to get the same range from 2in. to 15ft. (50mm to 4.5m). With their Dual-Fan™ technology the user gets the same high angular resolution at 2in. (50mm) between the heads as you would get at 15ft. (4.5m). Unlike “cross-fire” where its angular resolution varies with distance.
The Duo-View™ realtime move screen and 3-axis target allows the user to view a live alignment screen for both alignment planes on the same screen. You can switch views by rotating the shafts to a clock position and the view will automatically switch. The non-live axis is grayed out to avoid confusion.
Couple6 Software was designed for the novice user in mind. Hamar created an Easy Guide™ approach to navigate the software. It will require little to no training to use. High quality and easy-to-follow screens guide the user through each stage of alignment. It is designed to run on any Win7/8/10 tablet or laptop PC that has a Bluetooth™ connection.
Alignment Apps and Features
Easy Guide™ Navigation
Easy-to-follow screens guide you through the alignment, making Couple6 easy enough to use right out of the box with little to no training required!
Duo-View™ Realtime Move Screen
Alignment values update as you adjust the motor in real time. To switch views, rotate the shafts to a clock position and the view switches without any buttons to push. The non-live axis is grayed out to avoid confusion!
Measurement Results Popup
Click on a set of alignment data to display color-code alignment results. Red means Out of Tolerance, yellow means Good and green indicates Excellent. Foot values are also displayed.
Onboard Manuals and Videos
Our manual is built right into Couple6 software and is indexed to the currently viewed page. We also uploaded our training videos onto the tablet.
Thermal Growth Modeling
Enter thermal growth values at the coupling or the feet to offset the alignment, and the motor graphics will update to show the effects. Or enter temp changes at the feet, select the material and calculate the alignment effect at the coupling. Great for “what-if modeling”!
Base/Bolt Bound™
Enter dimension of the pump, and then lock different combinations of the motor and pump feet to see how it affects the alignment. The graphics and shim values automatically update with each click.
Flip It™ Feature
Couple6 allows the user to flip the motor graphics to match the pump/motor orientation without having to turn the display upside down!
Machine Train Program
Take data on up to 10 machines and the Train Module will calculate the shims/moves that minimizes the moves. Click on any machine to update the shim/moves of other components.
Soft Foot Check
On-screen, easy-to-follow procedure for checking Soft Foot. Automatically selects the “problem” foot and calculates the shim to fix it.
Vertical Motor Program
The industry’s only vertical alignment display with live graphical displays of the motor’s alignment along with shim values for all bolt-hole locations.
Move Screen Coupling View
For those more accustomed to gap/offset methods, we added a view right at the coupling to help aid interpreting the results.
Data History Table
For saving data for multiple alignments and keeping track of data trends. Easy dropdown list to catagorize the data.You can even average sets of data together before going to the Move Screen.
Spacer Shafts
Spacer (jack) shaft alignments have different data formats. We offer 7 data formats to match up with OEM alignment specs.
Manual/Timed Recording App
For recording shaft runout or thermal growth. Has a single-point recording mode or a time recording mode. Data is saved in an Excel format for easy uploading and analysis. A report shows min/max, a graph and a table of data.
Straightness Measurement
Using our A-987 Base, you can use our shaft alignment lasers to check the vertical/horizontal straightness of rails and surfaces. Couple6 calculates the Best Fit line for the data to provide the overall straightness values. A report shows the straightness TIR, a graph and a table of data.
Flatness Measurement
Using our A-987 Base or our more accurate L-730/L-750 Leveling Lasers with our A-1519-2.4ZB Target to measure the flatness of sole plates and other surfaces. Couple6 calculates the Best Fit plane for the data to provide the overall flatness values. A report shows the flatness TIR, a graph and a table of data.
Data Measurement Methods
Auto Clock
A standard feature, making coupled alignment amazingly easy. The target detects shaft rotation and automatically selects the clock location to record up to 8 data points. More data points mean better accuracy and quicker alignments!
Auto Sweep™
Start rotating the shafts and the accelerometer detects the movement and automatically starts collecting data at 16 readings/sec. Stop rotating the shafts and Couple6 calculates the misalignment. More data means more accurate alignment data and less rework!
Point Mode
Rotate the shafts to any clock location and press Record to take a data point. Collect as few as 3 points and up to 100+ to generate alignment results. Very useful for noisy environments.
Vertical Pump
Customized graphics make taking data very easy for vertical motors. Just click on a clock location and rotate the laser/target to that point and hit record. Customized vertical move screen graphics make the alignment part a lot easier too!
