Drive belt and pulley misalignment can significantly contribute to noise, vibration, bearing and pulley wear leading to premature bearing failure and costly machine downtime. SKFs Laser Belt Alignment Tools provide faster and more accurate alignment over traditional methods. Increasing bearing life, reducing noise, vibration and minimising wear on pulleys and belts. You can now align all belt drives with just one tool.

• Can be used on almost all machines using V belts, ribbed belts as well as chain sprockets• TKBA 10 utilises a red laser and used for distances up to 3 metres• TKBA 20 utilises a highly visible green laser and used for distances up to 6 metres and can be used in sunny conditions• Sturdy aluminium housings ensuring stability and accuracy during the alignment process

The MVU® is a full function Hydraulic system, operating the ventilator, ventilator tilt and scissors lift. Allowing for sustained operation and minimum maintenance.

Units can be set up with or without the following options: scissor lift, rotation, misting system, auxiliary fuel tank. They can be mounted on trailers, skid, hook lift skid, vehicle chassis.

Tempest hydraulic MVU®s do not require any special rigging for transportation or storage and are immediately ready for use when needed.

The TKBA 10 and TBKA 20 series of Belt Alignment Tools offer fast accurate laser alignment of pulleys and sprockets. Using powerful magnets to hold firmly to the pulleys side face, the transmitter projects a line to the receiver (mounted on the opposite pulley). Various indicator lines on the receiver give an immediate visual indication of any offset or misalignment with the belt. The line reflected back to the transmitter showing any horizontal misalignment between the two pulleys.

The Tempest MVU® 48 is a slightly scaled-down version of our MVU® 60, about 4,000 lbs (1,814 kg) lighter in fact. As the name implies, it showcases a still massive 48” (1.2 meters) seven (7) blade aluminum impeller and steel shroud. With its calculated 380,000 Open Air Flow CFM (645,624 m3/hr), the 48 is able to complete nearly any ventilation job in minutes, if not seconds; saving precious time, money, resources, and possibly even lives. Although it’s smaller than the 60, it sacrifices almost none of the performance to achieve its reduced weight and more compact size.

The TBKA 40 Laser Belt Alignment Tool aligns the pulleys V grooves not the side face, providing the most accurate horizontal, vertical and parallel belt alignment. Groove alignment also allows pulleys with differing faces or widths to be aligned with greater confidence. Attached to the pulley using magnets with V guides to aid accurate placement.

The MVU® 48 is a slightly scaled down version of our MVU® 60, about 4,000 lbs lighter in fact but still provides massive air movement unlike any other ventilation unit with several customizable options available:

• Three-dimensional target area simplifies the alignment process• V-guides facilitate the alignment of a wide range of V-belt pulleys• Aligns grooves of a V-belt pulley rather than its face• Maximum operating distance of 6 metres

Tempest Hydraulic Mobile Ventilation Units (MVU®)  are designed for heavy industrial use where ventilation is needed for long periods of time over multiple days, 24-7.
