In industrial machine repair and installation, precision is everything. A tiny deviation of a micrometre can lead to thousands of Rands in downtime, lost production, or safety hazards. That is why calibration is vital. It guarantees that your equipment is not only properly adjusted but also officially recognised as compliant through formal documentation. That documentation […]

With the upcoming season of plant shutdowns and extended machinery maintenance, proper machine installation and shaft alignment are essential steps in restarting plants. Shafts connecting motors, pumps, gearboxes, and fans must be perfectly aligned for the system to run smoothly. The goal is to maintain low vibration levels to prevent couplings and bearings from failing

Engineering Dynamics has established itself as a key player in industrial Preventive Maintenance and Condition Monitoring equipment and services across sub-Saharan Africa. With over three decades of experience, the company specialises in preventing machine failure by providing Laser Shaft Alignment and Predictive Maintenance measurement systems with accompanying training programmes. Notably, Engineering Dynamics is the exclusive

When Mahlubi-Andile Langalibalele arrived at Engineering Dynamics for Shaft Alignment Training, he was eager to get hands-on with the Easy-Laser® equipment. “The training was well presented and easy to follow,” he says. “The instructor clearly had first-hand knowledge and this made the concepts clear and practical.” He completed the course successfully. But the real test

When a local technical training institution approached Engineering Dynamics a few years ago, they had a vision: to align their curriculum with the real-world demands of today’s mechanical industry. Literally. Students (future fitters and turners) were still being taught methods like dial gauges for machine alignment, as the national curriculum hasn’t been updated. Formal training

Engineering Dynamics (ED), a South African company specialising in condition monitoring equipment and laser alignment solutions, has relocated to new premises in Lynnwood Ridge, Pretoria, effective May 2025. After 30 years in Faerie Glen, this move reflects ED’s ongoing growth and commitment to serving clients across mining, manufacturing, energy, marine, pulp and paper, food and

Another milestone for Engineering Dynamics as it earns a spot among the top 20 global distributors for Easy-Laser, from a network of over 80 distributors across 60 countries. This recognition highlights the company’s long-standing commitment to laser alignment technology and Easy-Laser products in particular. The relationship began nearly 30 years ago when Engineering Dynamics recognised

In the world of opencast mining, precision isn’t just a preference – it’s a necessity. This is where Paul Whaling comes in. As part of Reid and Mitchell’s field service team, a company that has been maintaining and refurbishing high-value electrical rotating equipment since 1935, Paul knows that even the smallest misalignment can lead to big

In this case study, we examine how Engineering Dynamics Services (EDS) prevented a major machinery failure through our monthly comprehensive vibration monitoring and predictive maintenance service. The scenario unfolded at a client’s industrial plant, where a critical piece of equipment was at risk of an unexpected breakdown. By deploying advanced vibration analysis, EDS not only
