In the world of rotating machinery, terms like balance, clearance and alignment are second nature to engineers and technicians. But one concept often hides in plain sight—critical to performance, longevity and safety—magnetic center alignment.

This is no niche obsession. In motors, generators, compressors and other equipment running on hydrodynamic sleeve bearings, magnetic center alignment is mission critical. Get it wrong, and the resulting instability can bring a plant to its knees: bearing failures, high vibration, uncontrolled axial drift, and in the worst cases, catastrophic equipment damage. And yet, many operations run for years without systematically checking it.

In modern high-speed rotating equipment, magnetic center alignment isn’t optional—it’s essential.
