Roll Alignment Applications

Roll Alignment Specialists

We make the best laser alignment systems in the world!

Precision alignment is all we do. For over 50 years, Hamar Laser has been a world leader in laser alignment. We design, manufacture, sell and service high-precision laser alignment and calibration systems for virtually any alignment application.

We know what works…and what doesn’t. We design our lasers to be the best solution for a given application. We don’t believe in “one-size-fits-all” products that a lot of our competitors offer. Buying a Hamar means the job will be done the right way, with unbeatable accuracy and as fast as possible.

Laser Technology Comparison

HLI’s L-742 Dual Scan® Technology vs. The Competitor’s Pentaprism

HLI’s Laser Transfer Method

When using HLI’s Laser-Transfer Method and a reference roll, the squareness between the L-742’s laser planes is effectively eliminated when moving the laser from section to section. This means the measuring laser plane is parallel to where it was upon the initial setup to within the combined flatness of the laser planes or .000045 in/ft (0.0038 mm/m)!

  1. 10.0188 mm/m Plane Flatness/Squareness
  2. 20.015 mm/m Plane Squareness
  3. 3(1) - (2) = 0.0038 mm/m Parallelism Error since Squareness Error Does Not Add in!

Competitor’s Pentaprism Method

When using the Pentaprism Method with a reference roll, after the Pentaprism is moved to another location along the machine, the laserbeam at the second location will not be parallel to the laser at the reference roll by up to .0005 in/ft (0.040 mm/m). Not very good for 3-7 meter rolls! Furthermore, rotating the prism to reach and upper or lower roll could result in an additional error of up to .040” (1.0 mm).

  1. 4 0.02 mm/m Beam Squareness/Flatness
  2. 50.02 mm/m Beam Squareness/Flatness
  3. 6(4) + (5) = 0.040 mm/m Parallelism Error Between 2 Beams!
  4. 7Additional Step Error of up to 1.0 mm
