Abstract

This project proposes the improvement on pump footing system for misalignment correction that come up from the soft foot phenomena. The soft foot occurs when there is a gap between a machine foot and the foundation. Shaft misalignment can be grouped into two segments which is offset misalignment, and angular misalignment. It is for the most part concurred that appropriate alignment is critical to the life of the machine and coupling wear, bearing failures, bowed rotors, in addition to bearing housing damage are all regular consequences of poor alignment. It also has been discovered that loads on mechanical parts, for example, bearing, seals, and couplings, diminish with improved alignment. The problem statement and the objectives of this research have been identified. Other than that, the scoped of the study, alongside the outline has been reviewed and discussed. The journals and information of the academicals that related to the research are explained in the literature review section. An improvement on pump footing system for misalignment correction has been design in order to overcome soft foot and misalignment correction. Methodology, section explained about complete step to design and development of the motor pump footing system. All the design and development tools that use to generate and select the best design of the product has been applied in this section. The product then analyzed to study their functionality and performance in real situation. The new improved pump footing system should be able to provide new foundation that do not relies on shims in alignment of machinery.
