Coarse adjustment of the laser beam
In order for the laser beam to hit within the detector surface during the
entire measurement the laser beam is coarsely aligned and centered to the
gearbox rotational center.
1. Mount and center the laser transmitter on the gearbox flange. Place a
piece of graph paper over the die end of the barrel. This graph paper will
be used as a target for the coarse alignment procedure.
2. Mark the position of the beam on the graph paper.
3. Rotate the gearbox shaft 180°.
4. Using the micrometer screws on the laser transmitter eliminate the angle
of the beam by adjusting the laser beam to half the distance from the
starting position.
5. Repeat step 1–4 until the laser makes a steady spot while rotating the
shaft 360° degrees.
