Extending Current Laser Technology to More Precisely Monitor Changes in Engine/Compressor Frame and Cylinder Alignment
The current economic climate is demanding reduced maintenance budgets; however, the population of integral engine/compressors is growing older. The combination of these two factors presents a major challenge. Maintenance managers must be ever more selective in overhaul, realignment, and regrout work. Machines are being allowed to operate beyond the traditional criteria of maximum vibration and looseness. Obviously, the manager who demands extended service intervals is asking for new technology for detecting signs of imminent failure, orfor the most parthe is simply asking for better application of current technology. Better application of existing LASER technology, as presented in this paper, addresses the issue of failure avoidance. Current LASER technology, properly applied, can detect changes in frame alignment with at least an order of magnitude greater resolution than is provided by the web deflection survey. Furthermore, the tooling and basic techniques involved apply equally well to cylinder alignment, an area where essentially no well recommended method of timely or cost-effective alignment checking exists. Both early detection of change in mechanical/structural posture and the rate of change over time are possible, and these are necessary ingredients in reducing maintenance budgets.
