Built on 55+ years of alignment innovation, X-Series™ delivers unmatched accuracy, ease-of-use, and repeatability for shaft alignment applications.
In the 1990s, after decades of laser alignment leadership, Hamar Laser saw an opportunity to improve shaft alignment. The result was the S-640, the first 4-axis shaft alignment system and the foundation of the X-Series™. Today, the X-990 continues that legacy of innovation with powerful 5-axis precision and user-friendly software.
Founded in 1967 by laser pioneer Martin Hamar, Hamar Laser has always focused on creating the world’s most accurate alignment systems with integrity, innovation, and reliability. Today, under Rod Hamar’s leadership, the company continues to serve a global market while staying proudly rooted in American manufacturing.
Hamar Laser’s Stealth Series™ set the benchmark for shaft alignment with rugged designs and breakthrough laser technology, but evolving industry needs demanded a faster, more intuitive, and upgradeable solution. And in September 2021, that turning point gave rise to the X-Series™, engineered with customer feedback at its core to deliver unmatched accuracy, flexibility, and long-term value.

All X-Series™ systems are engineered, built, and supported in the U.S. That means no overseas shipping delays for calibration, no customs holdups, and full confidence in product quality especially as global tariffs fluctuate. We’re proud to stand behind American-made innovation.
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.
