Shaft Alignment Handbook, Fourth Edition, presents the most comprehensive guide to rotating machinery alignment, based on years of hands-on experience.

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.

This book is a practical tool for industry professionals to help avoid costly shutdowns, dangerous failures, and early replacements in industrial operations using rotating machinery.
