What should a millwright do if misalignment continues despite adjustments?

When misalignment persists even after adjustments have been made, it is essential to reassess the entire setup to identify potential issues that may be causing the problem. This includes checking for foundation problems such as settling or shifting, which can impact alignment. Evaluating the condition of the equipment itself, including wear and deterioration of components, also plays a crucial role.

By thoroughly investigating these factors, a millwright can pinpoint the root cause of the misalignment rather than just trying to make further adjustments. Taking this investigative approach ensures that any underlying issues are addressed, leading to more reliable operation and preventing future misalignments. Overall, this methodical reassessment is key to maintaining equipment efficiency and longevity.
