Abstract
An apparatus for concentric alignment of cylindrical components includes an object having at least one outside cylindrical surface and at least one alignment target; an inner aligning component having at least one outside cylindrical surface having an axis and at least one inside cylindrical bore having an axis parallel with the axis of the outside cylindrical surface; an outer aligning component having at least one outside cylindrical surface having an axis and at least one inside cylindrical bore having an axis parallel with the axis of the outside cylindrical surface, wherein the at least one cylindrical surface of the object is adapted to fit rotatably into the at least one inside cylindrical bore of the inner aligning component, and the at least one outside cylindrical surface of the inner aligning component is adapted to fit rotatably into the at least one inside.
