Angular misalignment, sometimes referred to as “gap” or “face,” is the difference in the slope of one shaft, usually the moveable machine, as compared to the slope of the shaft of the other machine, usually the stationary machine.
What causes angular misalignment?
The common causes of true angular misalignment are when one of the connected shafts is compliantly mounted; for example, when it is located by a self-aligning bearing (See figure 18). Alternatively, it could be that an unsupported intermediate shaft is placed between the driver and the load (See figure 19).
What is parallel misalignment?
Parallel vertical misalignment is where the motor shaft is moved vertically away from the pump shaft, but both shafts are still in the same vertical plane and parallel.
