This article deals with the issue of the automatic setting of machines on their base. The focus is on machines with a self-supporting frame, freestanding, on more than three supports. The alignment uses the previously presented method of precise and repeatable machine placement on the foundation. As a result, the machine has the necessary parameters in terms of its geometry, and at the same time a defined weight distribution on the individual building elements is guaranteed. The paper presents a new method for automatic machine alignment using so-called “smart feet”. Due to this, the process of machine alignment is clearly defined, repeatable and does not depend on the experience of the personnel performing the alignment. The presented algorithm makes it possible to automate the entire machine-setting process. The article includes the presentation of a machine placement on its base, which is used for testing and verification of the functionality of the alignment algorithm.
