L-703B Bore & Twin-Barrel Extruder Alignment Laser

L-703B Bore & Twin-Barrel Extruder Alignment Laser

Description

The L-703B Bore & Twin-Barrel Extruder Laser is the “bore” variant of the L-703 Laser System.  It is a small, battery-operated, diode laser used for either bore alignment or twin-barrel extruder alignment and mounts either in our L-112 X-Y Laser Stand to position it externally for bore alignment, such as engine blocks, or in the A-703T Spline-Shaft Fixture to mount on a spline shaft of twin-barrel extruders.  It can also be used for cylinder straightness, gun-barrel straightness and compressors.

The L-703B features X-Y angular adjustments with a resolution of .00001 in/ft (0.0008 mm/m) and a range of ±0.36° (±.075 in/ft or ± 6.26 mm/m).  There is a 0.4995 (12.69 mm) mounting stud with the laser pre-aligned and concentric to the stud to <.0005 in. (0.012 mm).  This concentricity error is typically eliminated by either the L-103 Optical Beam Translator or the centering adjustments in the A-703T Spline-Shaft Fixture.  The L-703B also feature a lithium-ion rechargeable battery with up to 11 hours of battery life.  The AC charging adapter can also be used for continuous operation.

The L-703B can be used with any of our bore alignment targets (with the R-1307 Readouts), such as the A-220, A-221, A-510, A-512, T-212, T-271 and several more.

Applications

  • Compressor bores
  • Cylinder straightness
  • Engine-block crankshaft bores
  • Gun-barrel straightness for artillery and naval guns
  • Helicopter tail-rotor bearing bores
  • Stern-tube and shaft-bearing bores in ships
  • Twin-barrel extruder to gearbox alignment

Features

  • Lightweight, portable, LiOn battery-operated, compact, rugged design.
  • High-resolution angular adjustments for quick alignment of laser beam to bore reference with resolution of .00001 in/ft (0.0008 mm/m) and a range of ± .0375 in./ft (± 3.13 mm/m).
  • Long-range, high accuracy can be used up to 50 feet (15 m).  A long-distance version is available as well.
  • Can be used on many different applications.
  • Laser is concentric to mounting stud to <.0005 in. (0.012 mm).  This concentricity error is typically eliminated by either the L-103 Optical Beam Translator or the centering adjustments in the A-703T Spline-Shaft Fixture.
  • Visible laser beam with collimated 3 mm beam.
  • Virtually instantaneous warm-up.
  • Up to 11 hours battery life continuous use.
  • Easy fixturing for custom applications.
  • Supports most HLI bore targets when used with the R-1307 Readouts.
