FAQ
Are these shims only compatible with the Fluke 830?
The Fluke 830/SHIMS kit is designed as a companion product for the Fluke 830 Laser Shaft Alignment system, supplying the correction hardware needed after misalignment is identified. The shims themselves can be used wherever their dimensions are suitable.
Can these shims be used on different machine types?
Yes. Precision alignment shims are a standard correction method for rotating machinery including motors, pumps, and compressors, provided the machine feet dimensions are compatible with the shim sizes in the kit.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do precision shims ensure accurate corrective action after laser alignment?
The Fluke 830/SHIMS kit provides machined metal shims that correct misalignment to exact specifications shown by the laser tool. Precision-cut shims ensure that vertical and horizontal corrections are applied uniformly across the motor feet.
What is the advantage of using manufactured shims versus field-improvised adjustments?
Precision shims are cut to exact thickness tolerances, ensuring repeatable alignment quality. This eliminates guesswork, reduces vibration after correction, and extends bearing and coupling life compared to temporary or irregular corrections.
How do vertical shims correct misalignment in rotating equipment?
Vertical shims are placed under motor or pump feet to adjust the height of one foot relative to another, correcting angular misalignment that the Fluke 830 laser identifies and measures.
What role do horizontal shims play in completing alignment corrections?
Horizontal shims can be used alongside vertical adjustments to fine-tune lateral positioning, ensuring the coupled machines are perfectly aligned in both planes to minimize vibration and wear.
Are the shims in the Fluke 830/SHIMS kit compatible with standard motor feet?
Yes, the kit supplies common metal shim sizes suitable for industrial motor, pump, and equipment mounting applications. Contact Procure.ae for details on shim dimensions available in the kit.
How often do shims need replacement after alignment correction?
Properly installed precision shims are durable and require no replacement unless the equipment is relocated or realigned. As part of routine maintenance, periodic laser re-checks ensure shims remain effective.
Can Procure.ae deliver replacement shim kits to our GCC maintenance facility?
Yes, Procure.ae supplies the Fluke 830/SHIMS kit across the UAE and wider GCC region. Contact the team with your location and required quantities for delivery information.
Is installation guidance provided when you order the precision shim kit?
Technical support on shim selection and installation procedure is available through Procure.ae when you place your order. Reference your specific machinery type for tailored recommendations.
What material are the precision alignment shims made from?
The Fluke 830/SHIMS kit contains precision-machined metal shims designed for vertical and horizontal correction during shaft alignment work.
How are vertical and horizontal corrections applied using the shim kit?
Vertical shims adjust the height of equipment feet; horizontal shims fine-tune lateral position. The specific corrections needed are identified by the Fluke 830 laser tool and implemented using appropriate shims from the kit.
What is included in the Fluke 830/SHIMS Precision Alignment Shim Kit?
The kit includes machined metal shims in common thicknesses for correcting vertical and horizontal shaft misalignment identified during laser alignment work. Contact Procure.ae for exact shim sizes and quantities in the kit.
