SKF TKSA 71 Shaft Alignment Tool

Overview

The SKF TKSA 71 is a high-end, fully wireless laser shaft alignment tool built for professional maintenance in demanding industrial environments. Its ultra-compact measuring units — just 52 × 64 × 33 mm and 130 g each — fit into extremely narrow spaces, while Bluetooth 4.0 LE connectivity removes cables from the alignment process entirely. A 20 mm second-generation PSD sensor with a Class 2 line laser delivers fast, precise measurements with an error of less than 1% ±10 µm across a 0.04–10 m range.

The TKSA 71 is operated through six dedicated, free iOS and Android apps that guide users step by step through horizontal and vertical alignment, soft-foot checks, machine trains and spacer shafts — no prior training required. Advanced features such as a machine library, QR-code reading, disturbance compensation, 3D machine free-view and automatic PDF reporting make it a versatile solution for preventing unplanned downtime. With IP67-rated measuring units and carrying case, it performs reliably even in harsh conditions.

Applications

The SKF TKSA 71 aligns horizontal and vertical rotating machinery — including motors, pumps, fans, compressors, blowers and gearboxes — across power generation, oil and gas, water treatment, manufacturing and general plant maintenance. Its compact wireless heads make it especially suited to tight, hard-to-reach couplings and complex machine trains.
