SKF TKBA 21 Belt Alignment Tool for Technicians

The TKBA 21 is a sophisticated alignment tool designed for belt pulleys and chain drives. It comprises two main components: a transmitter, which emits a laser, and a receiver that captures the laser signal. Both units can be conveniently attached to the inner or outer surfaces of a belt pulley or chain sprocket using strong magnets, ensuring quick installation.

This tool is versatile and suitable for a wide range of machinery that employs V belts, banded belts, ribbed belts, and chain sprockets. When in use, the transmitter projects a laser line towards the receiver, which is positioned on the opposite pulley. The TKBA 21 adeptly identifies and corrects misalignments, including vertical angles, horizontal angles, and parallel misalignments, accommodating various combinations of these alignment issues.

The laser diodes used in the TKBA 21's transmitter and receiver are red, and the tool effectively operates over distances of up to three meters (10 feet). The use of powerful magnets enables rapid and effortless attachment to the machinery, enhancing user convenience.

One notable advantage of the TKBA 21 is its streamlined alignment process. It allows for adjustments to both tension and alignment simultaneously, making it an efficient choice for operators. The device is designed for ease of use, reducing the complexity often associated with aligning belt systems and chain drives.

In summary, the TKBA 21 alignment tool stands out for its user-friendly design and adaptability. With its dual laser transmitter/receiver setup and powerful magnets for easy attachment, it simplifies the alignment process for various types of machinery. Whether dealing with V belts or chain sprockets, this tool provides a reliable solution for ensuring proper alignment and tension, ultimately contributing to more efficient machine operation.
