Hamar Laser offers a professional upgrade service for Stealth Series™ S-670 3-Axis Laser Shaft Alignment Systems, transforming them into fully functional X-Series™ X-880 5-Axis systems. This process modernizes both the hardware and software, providing users with enhanced precision, expanded capabilities, and access to the latest alignment technology.
The S-670 shares its outer shell and several hardware features with the S-680/X-880, including Dual Beam™ laser technology (as opposed to the Dual Fan™ laser used in the S/X-660). However, the S-670 is a 3-Axis system, requiring head rotation during “Step 5: Move and Shim” and lacking access to the Uncoupled Swipe Mode app available on the 5-Axis S-680/X-880.
Upon completion, the upgraded system becomes a 5-Axis platform with the ability to:
The upgrade converts the T-1285 3-Axis target (S-670) into a T-1290 5-Axis target (S-680/X-880). For the upgrade, the following components must be shipped to Hamar Laser:
Replacement or updating of internal components
After the process, the system is returned as a fully functional, updated X-Series™ X-880 5-Axis System with all applicable applications installed, ready for precision alignment work with enhanced efficiency and reliability.
Why pay full price for a brand-new system when you can unlock the same 5-Axis power for just a fraction of the cost? Upgrading your Stealth Series™ S-670 to an X-Series™ X-880 gives you all the advanced features, speed, and precision of our flagship model, at only one-quarter the price of buying new. It is the smart, budget-friendly way to put next-generation shaft alignment technology in your hands without breaking the bank.
Assumptions for this example: You have a 480 volt motor drawing 40 amps and operating 8400 hours/year. The Power Factor is .85. Electricity costs $0.06/kWhr. Also assume that the amp draw is measured before and after the alignment and it is found that there is a 1 amp difference.
kW =V* A*PF*1.732/1000
kW =480V* 1A*.85*1.732/1000
kW =.706 = power savings
Savings ($) = operating hours * kW savings * kW cost
Savings ($) = 8400 * .706 * $0.06/kWhr
Savings ($) = 8400 * .706 * $0.06/kWhr
Savings ($) = 355.82
If your plant has 80 similar motors, and if only half of them had the same amount of savings, it would total $355.82 * .5 = $14,232!
The coupling icons next to the data displays show the direction of the misalignment at the coupling and update as you move or shim the motor! You can also zoom in on the coupling to show them in the live display area of the screen.
