Danish translation:selv-indstillet
Explanation:
To align = at indstille, justere. Self-aligning? I would use selv-indstillelige even though it's not perfect. It does get the meaning across, though.

selvoprettende


Explanation:
Termen "opretning" bruges ofte i maskininsdustrien når akslerne på f.eks. en motor og en maskine skal flugte med hinanden i alle planer.

Men det er nok at skyde gråspurve med kanoner i denne sammenhæng.
