In Situ Dynamic Balancing

Unbalance is one of the most common causes of machinery vibration and is present to some degree in all equipment.

Some of the main sources of unbalance are as follows :

  • Blow holes in castings
  • Eccentric machining of pulleys and rotors
  • Improper key conventions used
  • Stack up of tolerances in assembly of equipment
  • Corrosion and Wear
  • Deposit build-up
  • Hydraulic or aerodynamic forces

Condition Based Maintenance - Involves into

Machine components like pumps and motors, vibration analysis can be used to diagnose the severity of unbalance before expending the time and money to dynamically balance these rotors in a stand balancer.
