Laser Kit solves machinery alignment problems.
Press Release Summary:
Laser Microgage Kit includes 90-Line laser squaring attachment for checking machine beds, vertical cutting machinery, roll parallelism, and geometric parameters. Laser beam enters 90-Line through port in front and exits out side port at 90° to incoming beam. Internal optics allow operator to place 90-Line anywhere along laser path and establish right angle references. Unit includes locking mechanism for pre-set positions and friction lock to hold beam in place.

Precision Laser Square Solves Machinery Alignment Problems
December, 2004, Newburyport, Massachusetts: Pinpoint Laser Systems is introducing a precision, laser alignment kit for use in factories and manufacturing facilities. The Laser Microgage kit includes a new laser squaring attachment called the 90-Line for checking machine beds, vertical cutting machinery, roll parallelism, and geometric parameters. The 90-Line is compact, easy to set up, and highly versatile for use in many industries. Initial customers; have used the 90-Line in shipbuilding applications, aligning rollers in converting and laminating, positioning parallel rails for precision slides, and checking milling and cutting tools.
The laser beam enters the 90-Line through a port in the front and exits out a side port at precisely 90 degrees to the incoming beam. Special internal optics allow operators to place the 90-Line anywhere along the laser path and establish precise right angle references. By rotating the front nosepiece, the right angle laser beam will swing through a full plane for checking the squareness of machine parts and surfaces, as shown in the photograph. The 90-Line can create multiple references and is well-suited for checking the parallelism of slides, rails, machine tracks, rollers, shafts, and other mechanical elements. The 90-Line has a locking mechanism for pre-set positions and a friction lock to hold the beam in place. The housing is machined from solid aluminum with a hard anodized coating and many threaded points allow for quick and easy mounting.
The 90-Line and the Laser Microgage are designed and manufactured in the United States and you will find them in factories, machine shops, shipbuilding, utility companies, roll mills, printing and converting plants, and many other facilities.
