Definition of Balancing Machine

It is a measuring tool used for balancing mostly rotating machine parts. The machine comprises of mainly two rigid pedestals and on top a mounting platform with suspensions and bearings. It is a sonic machine that can tell which part of the material is unbalanced exactly where to add and remove weights to properly balance the parts. This is possible as when the unit or the material which is undergoing this test is bolted to the platform and is rotated either with an end-drive or belt-air, the vibration of the suspension is detected by couple of sensors which is rotated and that information is used to balance the unit properly. The sensors may depend on what type of balancing machine is being used as it can be of two types which are soft bearings and hard bearings. Rotating parts like the fans, turbines, disc brakes, propellers, electric motors etc., are such units or materials which are tested in these machines.

Processing of a Balancing Machine

While the unit or rotating part is being tested on the bearings, the suspension is attached with a vibration sensor which works by moving a magnet with closure of a fixed coil which generates voltage in proportion to the velocity produced from the vibration from the rotating part. As there are two types of balancing machines, many vibration measuring tools are used like sometimes accelerometers are used for measuring the acceleration of the vibration, a photocell, proximity sensor, and encoder are also used to derive the rotational speed as well as the relative phase of the rotating part. Then by calculating the information from the relative phase of the rotating part or the vibration of the rotating part to determine the amount of movement in one rotation of the part gives the amount of unbalance existing in the unit which is being tested. Also the difference between the phase and the vibration peak gives the information about the balancing material.

Where, and for what, machine tools in Balancing Machine are used?

Balancing machines are mostly used in manufacturing industries and automotive industries where it is very important to maintain the correct balance of the materials before beginning any machining process as high level of rotation may cause to excessive wear and tear on the tools. This process is completed very quickly as because of the help of advanced and modern technology like the computation system and with the help high precision adapters, optical insertion support tools and laser markings. This machine is required before any machining process and lathes are started.

Who produces the machines for Balancing Machine

German companies like the SCHENK, CIMAT, reputed entity like the SCHMITT are one of the leading companies which are providing the best balancing machines over many decades which provides many types of balancing machines like dynamic, static balancing machines which are developed designed and manufactured globally for their guarantee on their technology and their accuracy in balancing is well known for all the manufacturers using their machines.

Advantage of buying a Balancing Machine

If the components or lathes are not properly balanced before turning them into machining parts, may wear and tear the tools due to the high speed turning and oscillations and may generally hamper the quality of the components which may later cause problems in fittings and overall functionality due to the unbalanced parts.
