Precision Alignment Services Across the UK and worldwide
Royce Onsite Machining provides specialist shaft alignment, bore alignment, flatness alignment, and straightness measurement services for customers operating in critical industrial environments.
Using industry-leading laser measurement technology, our engineers accurately measure, document, and correct alignment issues that can lead to premature wear, vibration, reduced efficiency, and costly downtime.
Our alignment services complement our onsite machining capabilities, allowing us to both identify alignment issues and carry out corrective machining where required.
Shaft Alignment Services
Correct shaft alignment is essential for the reliable operation of rotating equipment. Misalignment can cause excessive vibration, bearing failures, seal damage, increased power consumption, and unplanned shutdowns.
Royce Onsite Machining provides precision laser shaft alignment services for:
- Pumps and motors
- Gearboxes
- Turbines
- Generators
- Compressors
- Fans and blowers
- Marine propulsion systems
- Production machinery
Our engineers can measure, align, and document shaft positions quickly and accurately, helping customers maximise equipment reliability and performance.
Common Applications
- Turbine shaft alignment
- Gearbox to propeller shaft alignment
- Generator alignment
- Pump and motor alignment
- Machine train alignment
- Alternator shaft alignment
- Wind turbine alignment
- Offshore rotating equipment alignment
Bore Alignment Services
Bore alignment is critical for ensuring proper operation of bearing housings, pivot points, stern tubes, turbine casings, and fabricated structures.
Misaligned bores can result in:
- Premature bearing wear
- Increased vibration
- Shaft misalignment
- Component failures
- Reduced equipment lifespan
Royce Onsite Machining can accurately inspect and verify bore positions before carrying out corrective machining.
Where bores require restoration or repositioning, our engineers can provide precision Line Boring Services to return components to specification.
Typical Bore Alignment Applications
- Main bearing housings
- Turbine casing bores
- Marine stern tube bores
- Rudder bearing housings
- Crane pivot bores
- Extrusion press bores
- Gearbox housings
- Large fabricated structures

Flatness Alignment Services
Flatness is essential where equipment relies on accurate mounting surfaces and sealing faces.
Royce Onsite Machining carries out precision flatness measurement and verification on:
- Machine foundations
- Baseplates
- Flanges
- Engine bedplates
- Slewing bearings
- Structural interfaces
- Thruster mounting faces
- Rudder mounting surfaces
- Thrust bearing faces
Using laser measurement technology, we can accurately identify deviations and recommend corrective actions.
Where surfaces require restoration, our Onsite Milling Services can machine mounting faces and structural surfaces back to specification.

Straightness Measurement Services
Straightness measurement allows accurate verification of machine beds, turbine casings, guideways, and structural components.
Using precision laser systems, Royce Onsite Machining can measure straightness profiles in multiple axes and provide detailed reports on equipment condition.
Common applications include:
- Diesel engine main bearing pockets
- Propeller shaft housings
- Rudder post positioning
- Turbine casing alignment
- Extrusion press alignment
- Machine base verification
- Rail and guideway alignment
