L-703S Lathe/Turning-Center Spindle & Straightness Alignment Laser

Description

The L-703S Lathe/Turning-Center Spindle & Straightness Alignment Laser is the lathe “variant” of the L-703 Laser System. It is a small, battery-operated, diode laser that mounts directly into spindle chucks and collets. It is used for aligning headstock spindle axes to guideways and sub-spindles and tailstocks.

The L-703S features X-Y angular adjustments with a resolution of .00001 in/ft (0.0008 mm/m) and a range of ±0.36° (±.075 in/ft or ± 6.26 mm/m). There is a 0.4995 (12.69 mm) mounting stud with the laser pre-aligned concentric to the stud to <.0005 in. (0.012 mm). This concentricity error is typically eliminated by using either the NORMIN procedure in Lathe10 Software or the L-103 Optical Beam Translator. The L-703S also features a lithium-ion rechargeable battery with up to 14+ hours of battery life. The AC charging adapter can also be used for continuous operation.

The L-703S can be used with any of our spindle alignment targets such as the T-1294, T-1295, T-1296, T-1297 and T-261 and our Lathe10 Software.

Applications

Guideway straightness checks during PMs and assembly
Headstock to tailstock alignment for lathes, OD grinders, turning centers and similar machines
Headstock to guideway alignment for lathes, OD grinders, turning centers and similar machines
Spindle to subspindle alignments for lathes, OD grinders, turning centers and similar machines
Surface plate calibration

Features

Lightweight, portable, Li-Ion battery-operated, compact, rugged design.
High-resolution angular adjustments for quick alignment of laser beam to bore reference with resolution of .00001 in/ft (0.0008 mm/m) and a range of ± .0375 in./ft (± 3.13 mm/m).
Long-range, high accuracy can be used up to 50 feet (15 m). A long-distance version is available as well.
Can be used on many different applications.
Laser is concentric to mounting stud to <.0005 in. (0.012 mm). This concentricity error is typically eliminated by using either the NORMIN procedure in Lathe10 Software or the L-103 Optical Beam Translator.
Visible laser beam with collimated 3 mm beam.
Virtually instantaneous warm-up.
14+ hours battery life continuous use.
Easy fixturing for custom applications.
Supports most of our spindle targets: T-1294, T-1295, T-1296, T-1297 and T-261 (with R-358).
