Gas & Oil Drilling Alignment and Measurement Solutions
Whether onshore or offshore, well-drilling sites rely on a multitude of systems to successfully perform the drilling operation. The mud pump is a key component tasked with circulating drilling fluid under high pressure downhole. The mud pump can be divided into two key sections: the power end and the fluid end. The alignment of the power end to fluid end on mud pumps is key to achieving suitable life and performance of the piston and liner system.
Misalignment contributes to accelerated wear on both the piston and the liner, and replacing these components requires downtime of the pump. The traditional method of inspecting alignment is to remove the piston from the piston rod, stroke the pump forward and check the vertical and horizontal alignment of the piston rod OD to the piston liner ID with micrometers. This is a time consuming and cumbersome technique that was ultimately not well suited to troubleshoot and solve alignment issues.
Mud Pump Alignment Testimonials
“I’m a firm believer in Pinpoint’s Mud Pump Alignment Kit, having used it as well as the old manual methods and even Faro arms in troubleshooting pumps on offshore rigs. In the hands of someone who understands pump alignment it is a powerful yet portable tool.”
“We routinely utilize Pinpoint Laser Systems’ Mud Pump Alignment Kit. We have one service technician dedicated to pump alignments and have seen continued success correcting issues on pumps after numerous rebuild attempts by others proved unsuccessful.”
Benefits of a Mud Pump Alignment Kit
• Enables you to measure where the piston will run through the liner at various positions
• Projects a laser centerline from the fluid end back towards the rear power end of the pump
• Allows you to determine how much shimming is required to correct alignment issues
• Requires removing only the piston rod allowing for quicker service and less downtime
The laser is secured to the piston & receiver is securely centered in the liner.
