Rotating machinery is the heart of many industrial operations, but
many engineers and technicians perform shaft alignment by guesswork
or with limited knowledge of the tools and methods available to
accurately and effectively align their machinery. Two decades ago,
John Piotrowski conferred upon the field an unprecedented tool: the
first edition of the Shaft Alignment Handbook.

Two editions later, this bestselling handbook is still the most
trusted and widely embraced guide in the field. The third edition
was reorganized, updated, and expanded to be more convenient,
intuitive, and to reflect the latest developments in the area.
Dedicated chapters now discuss the basics of alignment modeling,
each of the five basic alignment methods, and electro-optic
methods. Significant new material reflects recent findings on
detecting misalignment, machinery movement from offline to running
conditions, multiple element drive trains, and specific information
on virtually every type of rotating machinery in existence.
Entirely new chapters explore bore and parallel alignment.
