Pinpoint Laser System Unique Bore Alignment Kit is Easy to Use on all Kinds of Applications!

Bore Mount

Peabody, Massachusetts, June 2011: Pinpoint Laser Systems is introducing a new precision Microgage Bore Alignment Kit for industrial applications. This newest product is perfectly suited for aligning extrusion presses, rams, precision screws, propeller shafts and stern tubes, bar feeders, and many other demanding applications. This Microgage Bore Alignment Kit is compact, precise, easy to set up, and most importantly, affordable - for small and large firms alike.

This unique Microgage Bore Alignment System consists of a cylindrical laser that can be adapted to bores of all sizes. The laser reference beam is projected to a digital receiver that is held in a bore mount with a similar precision. This mount is reversible so that the receiver can detect the laser beam coming either through the bore or entering the bore, and measurement readings are then transmitted to a handheld display. Readings as small as 0.0001 inch (0.003mm) define the bore or shaft's alignment and guide the user to what changes are needed for optimal performance. Measurements can be made over a range of 150 feet, and simple fixtures expand the options for aligning a variety of machines. A computer interface can store readings and connect the Microgage to common programs and spreadsheets. The Microgage Bore Alignment Kit is highly versatile for use either on the factory floor or in the field and fits into a small carrying case for easy storage.

Since 1992, Pinpoint has offered a broad line of easy-to-use products that incorporate lasers, optics, electronics, and solidly built mechanical components. Customers in industries as diverse as semiconductor equipment to pet food manufacturers use the tlaser microgage for both routine and complex measuring and alignment tasks. These products deliver measuring resolution of 0.0001 inch and work over ranges of 150 feet. Pinpoint's measuring equipment is actively used in the aerospace industry, machine shops, paper and textile mills, shipbuilding facilities, extrusion plants, and electronic assembly facilities, just to name a few. Over the years Pinpoint has worked closely with many manufacturers to develop specialized alignment systems for robotic applications, medical scanning devices, and numerous other applications.

Our Customers

Our Customers Say

"We actually used it (Cylindrical Laser) for aligning the Power Rollers the turbine rotor sits on during inspections and testing. It went extremely well. Didn’t suffer the delays we encountered last year when the turbine rotor shouldered up on the power roller (cost us about 20 hours). It has already paid for itself. Thanks for your help."

Edward W. Williams
TG/MSR Project Manager
Brunswick Nuclear Plant,
Progress Energy Carolinas

"We purchased the Microgage 2000 and the Lateral Pitch Plate for measuring flatness, parallelism, and other applications. We have been extremely satisfied with the entire process. The quality of the parts we received is of the highest order and the accuracy of the measurements is truly spectacular."

Dr. Joshua R. Williams,
Sr. Scientist
XStream Systems, Inc

"This is just an update for you and a testimony to the great help that your product was in assisting us during our installation and maintenance work and shutdown periods. We installed the wedge blocks with ease and they performed in the very same manner. Great product!"

Jeffery W. Evans
Westinghouse Electric Co, LLC

"We are having great success with this unit (Microgage 2D Universal Kit) in moving my machines this year."

Martin Usher
Apollo Machine

"The sales department was very knowledgeable and the technical department was very thorough. The Microgage 2000 was exactly what we needed. We are extremely happy with the results."

Dr. Joshua R. Williams
Senior Scientist
XStream Systems, Inc.

"One thing that stands out and has been commented on by all who have seen the equipment is its design and build quality. It is a beautifully engineered and built piece of equipment, which is a pleasure to use. Well Done!"

Nenad Sarcevic, Engineer
Airbus UK

"We purchased the Microgage 2000 Universal Kit to align a test apparatus so that the floor of the test tank and the left wall are straight down their respective lengths of 80 feet to 0.0002 inch or better. The floor and left wall also had to be perpendicular to each other

The laser system worked extremely well, proving us and our customer the confidence that the installation when as planned within the tolerances."

Drew Disney
Project Coordinator/Quality Assurance Manager
Hewitt (Brockville) Ltd

"We have been using your equipment regularly to align our scanners for last 4 years with excellent results! After using these we actually wonder how we could align our scanners with out using this tool! These have indeed helped us to improve our sensors measurement accuracy many fold."

Manish Garg
Jasch Industries Ltd.

"We have been very pleased with its (Microgage 2D) performance, as well as Ken Nelson's advice and help. It is quite likely we will be purchasing other units in the future."
