Abstract : This research provides an analysis about the need to implement innovative alignment techniques and to diversify the methods to carry it out, if there is outdated equipment, misalignment becomes more recurrent and this causes the equipment to present failures as high vibration, high temperature, product leaks, excessive energy consumption and wear of some equipment components. In turn, this text exposes the methodologies of alignment of axes by straight edge, dial indicator, and by laser alignment, and makes a comparison of the advantages and disadvantages between these three methods to conclude which of them brings greater benefits to the industry today.
