A heavy-duty, precision fixture for realistic training in shaft alignment. Patterned after a common ANSI centrifugal
pump, the device allows for training using all common alignment techniques and tools. Each element can be adjusted
to create unique alignment problems. The training aid, coupled with a textbook and a Use/Exercise Guide, creates a
complete, in-depth, hands-on course in precision alignment techniques used in industry.
