The tool has two components – a laser-emitting unit and a receiver unit. It
uses powerful magnets and V-guides to fit to the pulley’s grooves, allowing the
TKBA 40 to be attached quickly and easily.
The TKBA 40 offers a number of key benefits to The TKBA 40 has a number of user-friendly The laser unit emits a laser line that is
the user: features: projected onto the receiver unit. A three-
dimensional target area on the receiver unit
• Fast, easy attachment – using powerful • Optional extra: a special side adaptor allows allows easy detection of the type of
magnets alignment of multi-ribbed and timing belt misalignment and how to correct it. Belt
• Simplified alignment process pulleys, as well as sprockets alignment is achieved when the laser line
• Ability to align a wide range of V-belt • Maximum operating distance of 6 m (20 ft) coincides with the three reference lines on the
pulleys, as four sizes of V-guide are supplied accommodates many applications receiver unit.
• Simultaneous adjustment of tension and • Relies on red laser diode, and supplied in
alignment sturdy carrying case
• Aligns grooves – rather than faces – of • Runs on 2 × AAA batteries for 20 hours’
V-belt pulley, for optimum alignment of continuous operation
