The SKF TKSA shaft laser alignment tool is a precision instrument for mounting and maintenance that measures and corrects misalignment between the shafts of rotating machines. It is used on pumps, motors, gearboxes and compressors, where incorrect alignment generates vibration, bearing wear and premature failures. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this tool as part of its mounting and maintenance line, with technical advice to choose the right equipment for the application.
The TKSA designation identifies SKF shaft laser alignment tools. The numeric suffix, as in TKSA 71/PRO, indicates the model within the series: the higher the number, the greater the performance and measuring capability. The /PRO suffix indicates a professional version, with expanded functions and additional accessories. To correctly interpret each code, it is advisable to consult the manufacturer's technical documentation or send the full code to MR for guidance.
These alignment tools are used in industries such as petrochemical, food, paper, cement and water treatment, among others. In Argentina, they are common in preventive and corrective maintenance of centrifugal pumps, electric motors, fans and gearboxes. They reduce energy consumption, extend bearing service life and decrease unplanned downtime. They are also useful for new installations and for checks after repairs.
To select a TKSA alignment tool, take into account the shaft diameter, the distance between them and the type of coupling. The series offers different reaches and mounting systems. During use, it is key to clean the contact surfaces, check the battery charge and calibrate the equipment according to the manual. Alignment must be done with the machine at operating temperature and with the anchor bolts tightened. Careful mounting prevents measurement errors and guarantees reliable results.
As for equivalents, SKF laser alignment tools can be compared with equipment from other brands that offer similar functions, such as parallelism and angularity measurement. However, each manufacturer has its own interface and accessories, so interchangeability is not direct. When requesting a quote, it is important to provide the full code and the application to receive the compatible model. MR Accesorios Industriales carries SKF as an official brand and can advise you on the choice.

Frequently Asked Questions
