Figure 9-1. Typical vertical machine configuration
Figure 9-1 shows a typical vertical machine arrangement with one machine
mounted on top of the other using a bolted flange.
In flange-mounted machines, alignment corrections are made directly at the
flange.
Angularity is corrected by inserting or removing shims between the flanges.
The Product calculates the shimming thickness for each flange bolt. Offset is
corrected by positioning the flange laterally.
