Whether you have a paper mill, printing press or textile mill, your business can benefit from laser alignment. Our patented, state-of-the-art laser alignment systems are up to six times more accurate and twice as fast as a theodolite. The system can align one roll of a mill to another that is 200 feet away to within .003". And that's an honest .003", not what some technician thinks he sees in his theodolite. Furthermore, unlike theodolites, only one technician is needed to run the laser system, which frees up critical maintenance staff during shutdowns.

One example of the power of Hamar's Laser's alignment systems is a Mark IV printing press that was aligned using the L-742 system. On a new installation, it took the technician 3 days to align the whole press. When they were done the press was spun up and it immediately went to rated speed with no more adjustments. The consultant for the customer said he had never seen anything like that in his 30 years of installing printing presses.

With the introduction our 2 new lines of continuously rotating laser systems, we now have the perfect system to match your accuracy needs. We have taken our innovative design for high-accuracy roll alignment and applied to lower-accuracy applications, such as steel mills, aluminum continuous casting machines, rubber mills and textile mills.

The systems come in 2 accuracy grades: the L-732 Precision Roll Alignment System and the L-742 Ultra-Precision Roll Alignment System. The L-732 is designed for those applications with accuracies needs of 0.00012"/ft (0.01 mm/M) or higher and the L-742 is for those applications with accuracy needs of 0.00002"/ft (0.0017 mm/M) or higher.

Depending on the application, prices range from $19,995 to $29,950.
