COMPRESSOR ALIGNMENT

To ensure the efficiency and longevity of new or overhauled compressors, it is essential that they are mounted in their original housing and that alignment with the electric motor is performed with the utmost precision.
Frigo Tecnica Internazionale uses state-of-the-art SKF laser aligners, which allow mechanical centering to be performed with high accuracy, significantly reducing downtime and the risk of abnormal stress on mechanical couplings.
After proper alignment, our team starts the refrigeration unit and performs a thorough vibration analysis to check the dynamic balance and mechanical condition of the compressor. The entire activity is supported by certified electronic instrumentation.
At the end of the intervention, a detailed technical report is issued, guaranteeing the quality and traceability of the operations performed.

FAQs
Alignment between compressor and electric motor is essential to reduce vibration, wear and tear and consumption, preventing breakdowns and improving system efficiency. Frigo Tecnica Internazionale performs centering with laser instrumentation and vibration verification, issuing technical report at the end of the procedure.
Below we have collected the most frequently asked questions about alignment: when it is necessary, how the operation is performed, what signs indicate misalignment and what benefits it brings in terms of reliability and operating costs.
Proper alignment reduces vibration and mechanical wear, preventing premature failure and improving overall equipment efficiency. Misalignment, even minor, can cause damage to joints, bearings, and significantly reduce equipment life.
We employ state-of-the-art SKF laser tools, which ensure pinpoint accuracy and reduced intervention time, improving reliability and minimizing system downtime.
Yes, in addition to mechanical centering, we perform a vibration analysis and post-start-up tests to ensure that the compressor and motor operate in perfect synergy.
Of course. We issue a detailed document with results of laser measurements and vibration analysis, which is useful for traceability and for any internal or external audits.
