Motor Alignment
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| 1. ___ soft foot is a condition that exits when eternal forces are applied to the machine. | Induced |
| 2. ___ misalignent is the situation where two shafts are parallel but are not on the same axis. | Offset |
| 3. The ___ alignment method uses two dial indicators to take readings of opposing side of coupling rims, giving two sets of shaft runout readings. | reverse dial |
| 4. Rough handling of a macine or uneven mounting pads due to poor machining or welding often causes ___ soft foot. | angular |
| 5. Machined washers that are two to three times thicker than the original washer can be used to correct the dowel effect. True or False | True |
| 6. ___ soft foot is prevented by using clean, solid bases with all paint, grime, rust, and corrosion thoroughly removed. | Springing |
| 7. When using the shaft deflection method of measuring soft foot, the dial indicator may interfere with loosening of anchor belts. True or Fale | False |
| 8. Temperature changes resulting in thermal expansion may be caused by the ___. | all of the above. heat from a loaded motor, high ambient (room) temperature, temperature of the pumped product. |
| 9. Readings on a dial indicator must begin at zero to determine total movement. True or False | False |
| 10. If the beginning reading on a dial indicator is 0.018" and the end reading is -0.003", then the total indicator reading is ___. | 0.021 |
| 11. The first adjustment when performing shaft alignment should be ___. | angular alignment in the vertical plane |
| 12. The accuracy of ___ alignment is within 0.0002" | laser |
| 13. The machine to be shimmed (MTBS) is chosen because it is ___. | easier to move |
| 14. Jackscrews are used to make ____ movements of a machine to be shimmed (MTBS). | horizontal |
| 15. The last adjustment when performing shaft alignment should be ___. | parallel alignment in the horizontal plane |
| 16. Nope is the comment Josh wrote in | |
| 17. All anchor bolts can be loosened and both machines shifted to try to align two machines if sufficient movement is not available at the machine to be shimmed. True or False | True |
| 18. Nope is Josh's note | |
| 19. A feeler gauge is more reliable than a taper gauge for measuring angular misalignment. True or False | False |
| 20. ____ misalignment must not exceed 1/2 degree and may be corrected using a level placed on top of the pulley parallel with the pulley shaft. | angular |
| 21. To take ___ readings, the coupling must be disconnected and both coupling halves rotated together. | rim-and-face |
| 22. With the electronic reverse dial method, thermal expansion compensation information can be entered into an alignment calculator. True or False | True |
| 23. Induced soft foot is a condition that exists when the bolt hole of a machine is so large that the bolt head forces the washer into the hole opening on an angle. True or False | False |
| 24. A ___ is a rigid steel support for firmly coupling and aligning to or more rotating devices. | base plate |
| 25. A drilled and tapped base plate that is used to anchor a machine must have a thickness that is a minimum of ___ times the root diameter of the anchoring bolts. | 1 1/2 |
| 26. Identify the bolt anchoring problems in illustration page 84 | A = Bolt Bound B = ? C = Bolt Bottom Out D = ? has to be dowel effect or excess bolt body |
| 27. From the illustrtion, the alignment method shown is the ___ method. | reverse dial |
