A system for aligning a plurality of cylindrical rollers is disclosed. The system
comprising a light emitter unit having a horizontal planar light source for generating
a horizontal planar light signal and a vertical planar light source for generating
a vertical planar light signal. The system further comprising a reflector unit
having a reflective surface for receiving the vertical light signal from the light
emitter unit and returning a reflected vertical light signal. A horizontal lineal
indicator is provided on the exterior surface of the reflector unit and a vertical
lineal indicator is provided on the exterior surface of the light emitter unit.
By aligning the horizontal planar light signal with the horizontal lineal indicator
and by aligning the reflected vertical light signal with the vertical lineal indicator,
the cylindrical rollers are aligned in a common plane and are substantially parallel
to each other.
